Scars
<p>Onyx in diamonds,</p><p>Yokes of broken eggs rot.</p><p>Indigo is not blue,</p><p>Nothing but naught assumptions.</p><p><br/></p><p>Marijuana I take sitting, thinking,</p><p>A bottle of lies I had been sipping,</p><p>Readily driven by delusion, social illusions,</p><p>Your words saved me, your actions wounded me more.</p><p><br/></p><p>Joyous spirits tamed by cupid's blood stains,</p><p>Another heart aches, another pale smiley face,</p><p>No I tried to save them, but healing starts with 'self',</p><p>Every 'one more' I see, one more into the deep it is.</p><p><br/></p><p>Driven by pleasure and luxury, blind to what is desired, </p><p>Another sip of giving in, I take in.</p><p>Ready to give up that last beat I kept in all my injuries,</p><p>A mild smile as I fall into euphoria, the deep calls.</p><p><br/></p><p>Play? With my heart, play??</p><p>Ridiculous excuse for the scar you gave,</p><p>Every 'one more',</p><p>Continued sequence,</p><p>In the deep I live now as it is,</p><p>On the hill of depth beneath.</p><p>Under these masks, I bear the pain of broken bits I tried to fix.</p><p>Souls hollow, spirit shallow, heart defied, a living void.</p><p><br/></p><p>Scars </p><p>Cremated carcass, my heart,</p><p>A happily ever after story—</p><p>Reversed.</p><p><br/></p><p>Sarcasm but the one that wrote this still lives? </p>
