It took years to attain and a second to tear it all down

8/15/00

underneath blankets of regret you are on the brink of fading away
whisper to the past trying to remember how this began
you look all around wait so still and patient wanting so desperately for the cue
the word any chance... to prove how much you have to give
drowning in the layers of lies spit out
the door opens the wrong way on the outside permanently
if i told you this was killing me would you stop?
holding my heart in your hands choose the deepest crack
those scars are not just for show.
