Prey
Skyler M Nov 2017
I found myself on the edge of your vision,
I've fallen into something much bigger than myself,
Taken a bite onto something that I can't control,
It's my love for you and I'm ripping the flesh off of my body.

Realizing I've lost my heart,
I should've kept my distance,
You're an animal and I'm the prey,
Common sense don't mean much when you're around.

You're the one I need now,
In the eternity of night,
If I leave with no warning,
Just know that I'll be back.

Realizing I've lost my eyes,
I've tried to keep my distance,
You're the animal and I'm the prey,
Common sense comes crashing down when you're around.

Galaxy Vision
Skyler M Nov 2017
I don't believe I'll be making it far,
And my feet they will step in all of the tar,
That litters the unholy ground below,
I do believe that my body has been found,
Under the middle midnight stairs,
I am a suicidal case.

Don't you forget me,
Don't you leave me be,
Don't you let go of me,
Cause I have Galaxy Vision.

The sun won't rise in the deepness of my eyes,
So the galaxy replaces your silhouette,
Then I can remember that you were here,
To grab the harpoon and write your name,
And to forge a note of confession just for you.

Don't you forget me,
Don't you leave me be,
Don't you let go of me,
Cause I have Galaxy Vision.

Oh, the shadows, they scream,
Repeating little simple lines every night,
Of how they can foretell,
That you will never care,
I am only a burden that rests upon your shoulder.

Don't you forget that I am here,
Don't you leave me alone,
Don't let go of my hands,
Cause I have the stars aligned for tonight.

Three Eyes, Three Guns
Skyler M Nov 2017
Is the devil crawling from hell?
Reaching out to take you down?
I'm the demon that you feared,
The one that'll make you drown.

I've got three eyes, one to see you fail,
One to shoot you down, and the last to **** your mind.

Can't you see me crawling from hell?
Reaching out to take you down?
I'm the devil that you feared,
The one that'll drown you in self-doubt.

I've got three eyes, one to see you fail,
One to shoot you down, and the last to **** your mind.

I can see in your eyes,
I'm killing you faster by the day,
Oh, it makes me smile.
Trust me.

I've got three guns, one for the pen,
One for the letters, and the last to **** your mind.

Unafraid
Skyler M Nov 2017
Rocking away the foes,
From my fingers to the toes,
And breathing in all the smoke,
Hoping I will never choke.

I'm a bottle of poison,
All my body parts boiling,
Into the viper's tongue,
Hoping I could stay forever young.

Beating all my enemies is fun and games,
Until she exclaims,
Pointing out all my damage,
That I had ravaged.

I'm a bottle of whiskey,
Helping you forget about miss christy,
Into another sin,
Hoping I could stay within.

Lovely
Skyler M Nov 2017
Can't you see,
You are lovely,
Lighting up my day,
No matter what you say.

A heart of gold,
That cannot be sold,
Take my hand and more,
We will be able to soar.

Can't you see,
You are lovely,
Your hands are wrapped in roses,
Warming up the coldest of noses.

You won't forgive yourself,
Leaving all your hate on the bookshelf,
Why won't you believe me?

Can't you see,
You are lovely,
The clouds are a shade of pink,
But still you rethink.
For my best friend who doesn't believe she is worthy.

Captured Me.
Skyler M Oct 2017
When I see you turn your head,
I remember the dread,
That ripped through my bed,
Now it's sitting in the shed.
Your eyes had captured me.

As the crow leaves home,
With nowhere to roam,
Better watch my tone,
He's scared of the phone.
Your hands had captured me.

When the sea rises,
Listing all the demises,
Handing in the crisis,
Fighting for no causes.
Your soul had captured me.

Don't let me be.
Gone.
Oct 2017 · 183
Away
Skyler M Oct 2017
The kitchen sink calls away
Can you understand?
The curtains have gone gray
Can you understand?
Furniture ebbing into the stray
Can you understand?
A tipped over ashtray
Can you hear me?
Leading the dog astray
Can you hear the sirens?
The radio is gone, don't betray
Can you hear the reaper
knocking on my door?
Oct 2017 · 159
I'm Standing
Skyler M Oct 2017
There's always a song on my mind
One that I like to call, my suicidal thinking
It's the daily grind
It's the song that reminds that i'm still blinking

You'll tell me, "oh, you poor child"
I'm teetertottering on this bridge
Now I've finally reconciled
You won't find me, standing on the ridge

A rift in my time
they're inside my house
Don't you hear the chimes?
Guess I've entered the madhouse

I'm remembering those times when I said goodnight and fell asleep
Now I'm having to wake every hour
Something else will creep
The air that I taste is sour.

I'm standing without purpouse
I'm standing without meaning
I'm standing and wishing
I'm standing and crying
I'm standing and breaking down
Oct 2017 · 152
Slowmo
Skyler M Oct 2017
Everything spins so fast these days,
Swirling into a sink hole, okay.
Guess I'm alright,
But, you don't don't really know my mind, right?
I'm seeing everything in slowmo,
Working my way through the trough.
Seeing how every bodies, just.
Writing for nothing but the show.

Even though I could end my pitiful life here,
I decide to stay in this loco motivated town stead,
Hounds instead, motivate me to move towards,
Everything the light won't touch.
I'm seeing everything in slowmo,
Bounds let, through snow and such.
Nothing could ever live up to something like the crutch.
Oct 2017 · 79
Home-bound
Skyler M Oct 2017
Everything's spinning so outta control
Leaving bottles of liquor on the floor,
Nightmares are my support beams,
As I'm walking to the guillotine.

I never saw you for what you were,
Only for what you gave,
Then you crushed me into the ground,
So I'd fine myself home-bound.

Everlasting glowing eyes,
Holding onto me and my fortune,
Giving up every other right to mine,
Maybe you can be good.

I never saw you for what you were,
Only for what you gave,
Then you crushed me into the ground,
So I'd find myself home-bound
Oct 2017 · 248
Be Concerned
Skyler M Oct 2017
The woods just keep getting darker,
As I am ever so starker than the invincible Mr. Lake,
And I'll the climb to the top of the branches,
So the moon can shine a little light,
On what is left of my life.

Be concerned,
I might have crossed the line,
I will be disappointing to you.

Get myself together,
Twist the vines as I make my way down,
Back to the wood's underbrush,
And the demons make the ground rumble.

Be concerned,
They will be here for me,
My soul will be theirs.
Oct 2017 · 251
Can't You See?
Skyler M Oct 2017
Her eyes are a dying fire,
Losing wars and hunting shores,
I can visualize her breath on the stained glass,
Then I hear the voice inside her head,
Harshly whispering how she's better off dead.

Crumbling into the bed of roses at her feet,
Falling into the emotions and broken bones,
Shouting out from somewhere below,
The crows have her arms now,
They're moving on to her feet.

Where did the time go when you were young?
The viper suddenly struck you down,
Under the stars above.
The midnight dove.
Oct 2017 · 89
The Night Before
Skyler M Oct 2017
Time makes it's way out the door,
Hovering over her face,
I can see twilight pulsing inside her eyes,
An ebony night that scares me but pulls me into your heart.

The gears crank and grind,
Sounding out so desperately,
Shouting to become heard,
So I grasp her hand.

Fighting with gravity to not just hold her tight,
I couldn't face letting her leave my embrace,
She, of course, has revived my heart.

The gears crank and grind,
Sounding out so desperately,
Shouting to become heard,
So I grasp her hand.

The Pleading Soldier
Skyler M Oct 2017
Can you believe in the sea,
As it crashes up against the pleading soldier,
The tender mind can't take it no more,
As the sun comes down,
The beast come out.

The pleading soldier,
Locks away his treasures,
And bury's his own doubt,
Killing his morality.

With guns lighting up the stale air,
The pleading soldier makes his way,
Through enemy lines,
He can't get a shot on the general.

Bombs blow him away,
As the nights becomes the morning,
The fighting finally secedes,
Into the pleading soldier's mind.

Fun With Rhymes(rap)
Skyler M Oct 2017
I'm bound by the sound
Of my own beating heart, let's start.
Not a battle, but a way to drop and rattle.
It's taking me back up to the top, now, explain everything from the beginning, stop.
Dropped all the pieces in this room, a makeshift tomb.
Twisting names and games.
Through no shame, you gain.
The inevitable urges to tip yourself over all of your verges.
Naming rhymes and taking the climb.
To the undifferentiated child, we can go wild.
Oct 2017 · 139
He's Thinking
Skyler M Oct 2017
Is that what you think of me?
The way you grab my hand?
Are you giving me a place to go?
Like maybe your pocketed heart?

Yet in that very moment,
The kaleidoscope begins it's turn,
As the walls turn to stone,
so I'm left all alone.

You hold his hand and breath his ash,
But he's not looking into your eyes,
He's not giving you his heart but docking it away,
Why can't you see?
There's lack of love and a spoonful of lust.

I won't get in between this love-hate war,
You killed yourself to wear the skin,
And underneath all the grime and tides,
I think you are lovely,
He thinks you've got a good body.

I think you are gorgeous,
He thinks you are dangerous.

I think you are lovely,
He's thinking, "Hope we do this roughly."

Is that what you think of me?
The way you grab my hand?
Are you giving me a place to go?
Like maybe your pocketed heart?
Oct 2017 · 86
Right Brain
Skyler M Oct 2017
I am made up of my right brain,
The creativity won't stop pouring out,
And it keeps me up at night.

Cause I don't have the skill,
To pull off all the antics,
That I dream to be.

So I keep myself under control,
I don't think about anything but the voices in my head,
Never acknowledge that they might be right,
Cause it just might get me killed.
Oct 2017 · 86
Kill Your Mind
Skyler M Oct 2017
It's dream day
A Sunday before the **** your mind holiday,
A time when the sun doesn't shine no rays,
Faith is a march for worry and pain,
It's the smallest grain,
In all the grains of sand.

When the lights flashed red,
I was stuck inside my bed,
The sheets were turning black and blue,
Guessing I can't do Jack-squat.

If you understand what I'm going though,
Raise your arms and hail Mary,
I pray to nothing above,
I still pray that I'll be saved.

Although I cannot believe,
I really want it to be true,
That I can repent for all the sins,
And pray to God,
Come save my soul.

Maybe, I'd be a better person,
Or just so maybe I'd be losing my mind.
Oct 2017 · 123
Let me In
Skyler M Oct 2017
I'm sitting on the floor,
As the room closes in before me,
Staring blankly at the pale paint,
It nears my tear-stained face,
A note slips under the door.

He says, let me in, let me in,
I'll open the door with nothing left to hide.

He's got his hand in mine,
We are both just as broken,
Our problems won't dissolve,
So we play with the devil.

He says, Let me in, Let me in,
I'll open the door with nothing left to hide.
Oct 2017 · 232
A
Skyler M Oct 2017
***
A folder for all my thoughts,
A cabinet for all my characters,
A desk for all the lies,
A room for all my antics,
And another for my demons.

A back up against the wall,
A foot kicking through the door,
A hand reaching through your chest,
A face layering yours.

A death with every right to be alive,
A life with every right to be dead,
A animal with hands of hooves and hooves of hands,
A spider with gloves spun of gold.
Oct 2017 · 514
Fell For You
Skyler M Oct 2017
I can't stop thinking about that dream,
I know instantly what it means,
You in my arms in paradise,
But do I act upon it?

Or should I let you be the one that got away?
Should I let you play with that boy?
It really hurts my heart to know that I am scared,
of saying the words to you.

I don't have the courage to walk up to you,
Tell me otherwise what I should do,
Should I have another dream to fulfill my means?

I fell for you way long ago but I never told you,
Cause I know the answer above all else,
Maybe you'll see this poem,
And regret talking to me.

I don't have the courage to walk up to you,
Tell me otherwise what I should do,
Should I have another dream to fulfill my means?

I know I lied to you,
about everything feeling that I have,
I just didn't want to lose you,
You're the only one that I got.

I don't have the courage to walk up to you,
Tell me otherwise what I should do,
Should I have another dream to fulfill my means?

I've walked myself into a hole,
Your love has lost himself,
Can't stop talking about the other girl,
That he separated from.

I don't have the courage to walk up to you,
Tell me otherwise what I should do,
Should I have another dream to fulfill my means?

Now I want to fulfill you,
Make you happy again,
Give you something that you deserve,
Even if I can't be with you.
Even if I can't be with you.

Tonight's the Night
Skyler M Oct 2017
Best you leave your brain at the door,
Cause we're gonna go crazy,
Tonight's the night we break our bones,

Tonight's the night we twist up the rules,

Tonight's the night we fall down dead,

Then grab your guns and ammunition,
Shoot whatever moves in your blind spots,
Make a deal with the second-hand smoke.

Tonight's the night the ocean dries up,

Tonight's the night the drugs go boom,

Tonight's the night the enemy comes to life.

Best you leave your heart at the door,
Cause we're gonna go crazy,
Tonight's the night we repair our bones,

Tonight's the night we assemble an army,

Tonight's the night we build our plight.
Oct 2017 · 202
Girl
Skyler M Oct 2017
Tell me what's on your mind,
I know you're quaking in your boots,
You wanna leave but I have a hold of your hand.

The sudden urge to hold you tight,
So sorry if I accidentally break your bones,
And if your moon turns to ash,
I'll be the one with the white torch.

We'll be okay,
Cause I have you and you have me,
We can be happy,
We can pretend everything is okay,
Nobody's talking crap,
Nobody's pushing us around.
Oct 2017 · 82
My Only God.
Skyler M Oct 2017
It was hard to say anything today,
cause I was pondering about you last night,
A girl that overwhelms me in the best of ways,

Your eyes are my only god.

I wanna hold you till I break my arms,
I gotta find out,
If what I'm feeling isn't fantasy,
Or my mind trying to cope with breaking off the poison.

Your eyes are my only god.

The idea of having you by my side,
Is nothing but a dream,
I'd wade through black mud water,
Just to get to you.

Your eyes are my only god.
Oct 2017 · 113
Fell
Skyler M Oct 2017
Everyone around us,
slowly dying.
If you think about it,
It doesn't matter how hard we try,
We'll always be forgotten.

Well I fell apart right on the starting line,
They jeered and cheered,
As I weeped.
Oct 2017 · 79
Together
Skyler M Oct 2017
We're shaking together,
Breaking down together,
We've got problems together,
We will go through this togther.

You got my back and I've got yours,
In the latest of nights,
I'll be the one by your side,
Reaching for your hand.

The one you love doesn't understand,
So I'm the one you fall back on.
Oct 2017 · 124
I Stopped
Skyler M Oct 2017
I stopped swallowing a long time ago,
I stopped breathing for you a long time ago,
I couldn't care less if you fell,
Cause I have my own problems too,
You scrapped your knee and I lost my heart.
Oct 2017 · 227
Mr. Lake's Wooden Box
Skyler M Oct 2017
He's been haunting me since dusk,
Never left my window still,
I can see his shadow out of the corner of my eyes,
And I will try with all my might to push him off.

"Mr. Lake, will you please?" I ask with eyes full of sorrow
"Boy, you gotta try a little harder than that, cause I got tricks up my sleeve and they will break you down into pieces tonight."
Such a cruel grin he sports.

The night turns it's back on me,
He comes clambering through,
In his hand a box of hands with guns,
"Pick one."

I stare longingly into the guns,
Tempting, it is, but I got my path ***** on straight.
So I won't throw it away.

The night releases it's grip, patting me on the back.
I'm still wide awake,
Mr. Lake is asleep in the chair across from my bed.
Another night down and a million more to go.
Oct 2017 · 130
Nowhere but hometown
Skyler M Oct 2017
Walking on the pavement that wishes me goodbye,
Tripping up on my own self-doubts,
The cracks were never there until I blamed,
The cinder king.

The buildings are cracking,
The secrets slipping through,
I was never ill but still I was sent to the pharmacy,
Farming the children who broke the line and wanted to get away.

It has bothered me for way to long,
I have got to go and make a new road,
Cause the one I've been trekking is pooling with blood.

Trading with a demon for some new meaning,
I know you want more but you just will not leave,
This concrete oasis at the edge of the forest.
Hometown is home when you have nowhere else to go.
Oct 2017 · 210
Can I Breath?
Skyler M Oct 2017
The pressure on my chest,
Before I took the bow,
The final word conspires
Against a holy fire.

Can I breath again?
My lungs fill with fire,
This time is ever so dire.
Can I breath again?

Bodies piled in the corner of my closet,
Masks hang the row above my bed,
A faucet that always leaks, hanging out of my eye.

Can I breath again?
My legs are crumbling under,
Cause I'm such a downer.
Can I breath again?
Oct 2017 · 127
Knocked
Skyler M Oct 2017
I knocked on Death's door asking if I could come in,
He told me, "Kid, you got all the things to live for."
Then slammed the door.

I knocked on Life's door asking for a drink,
She told me, "Kid, get your own drink, you've got your own hands."
Then slammed the door.

I knocked on God's door looking for a savior,
Nobody answered.
So I slammed the door
Oct 2017 · 439
Blame Me
Skyler M Oct 2017
Blame me,
For the knife stuck in your throat.

Blame me,
For the moths blocking the light.

Blame me ,
For the drugs in your system.

Blame me,
For the grave you dug.
Oct 2017 · 435
One. Two.
Skyler M Oct 2017
Taken two steps,

One.

Two.

Carved two blades,

One.

Two.

Killed two men,

One.

And two.

Two drops o' blood,

One.

Two.

Two eyes pop onto the wood,

One.

Two.

Two screams, too many.

One.

Two.

My vision is blue and red.

F.H.S.R.D.D.
Skyler M Oct 2017
There's a cynical feeling
And it's burning a hole
Though my everlasting soul
When it's evil that lights up the road
There's nowhere to go but down
Embrace your anger and turn it to dust.


There's now a hole
As I'm breaking down
No promises but I may have a soul
Be the one that feeds the demon at the crossroad
Rejecting is the feeling
Cry to the empire, demand your gold dust


Your pen is the weapon, now, grab it before it turns to dust
Is there anything else I could be feeling?
But I'm not so I'm going down
Have you ever felt another human's soul?
They show nothing but the road
In the path they find, a golden hole


Down the rabbit pit
Into a new found soul
Pray for another pile of dust
Dig a hole
How lonely they'll be feeling
Walking that road


Sing out your soul
In the middle of a dirt road
Drop into the hole
Become the drifting dust
Mild nightmares when I'm getting down
Scream for every feeling


Wake up in a hole
Blow the smoke through the feeling
Descending down
On a ledge of dust
I'm not feeling my soul
I'm losing myself on the winding road
Oct 2017 · 97
Mr. Lake
Skyler M Oct 2017
All the thoughts that I hate
And wish to exterminate

Mr. Lake

All the razors that I've flushed
and wish to forget

Mr. Lake

All the memories that I left in the rain
and wish to purge

Mr. Lake

Don't forget that he is alive
He will flood my membrane
fill it with something that I crave

Mr. Lake

Eyes of the cat and teeth of a lion
He'll befriend me
Contending all the secrets
That's him, yes it is

Mr. Lake
Oct 2017 · 113
Trees
Skyler M Oct 2017
Standing under the trees
Under the canopies
It's a symphony and your voice is leading

I can't take credit for something I did do
I'll just hand it over to you
Maybe you'll grow and become famous
Then I can watch as you smile and laugh at Mr. Lake

Standing under the trees
Under the galaxies
It's the big bang and our voices caused it
          
I am dying with every step
I am dying with every breath
but the last part of my soul still lives
The part that lives for you

Standing under the trees
Under the sheets
It's the next chapter and our hearts are It
Oct 2017 · 130
Hand.
Skyler M Oct 2017
So then i'd stand,
hand in hand,
hoping it goes as planned.

The hair strand,
falling inland,
my left-hand,
reaching for the inkstand.

Hand.

My fingertips are tipped with black,
I'm watching all the books stack,
before I take my life on the amtrack,

I'm getting so much feedback,
brain is swelling and before I know it I the hand crack,
all the voices are getting cutback.

Hand.

If your really understood,
then why are your hands all wood,
they might as well be on fire, firewood.

Hand.
Oct 2017 · 202
A ends with whY
Skyler M Oct 2017
An icy chill fills the room
Memories will start to fade
I'm with Pandora's box
Should I leave or should I grieve?

Memories will start to fade
I'm panicking now, as usual
Judging me for what and not who I am
It's choking my heart

I'm panicking now, as usual
My chest convulses I cannot breathe
It's choking my heart
Starts with an A ends with a whY?
Oct 2017 · 102
Mrs. Creativity
Skyler M Oct 2017
I found my place,
Among the broken individuals who,
Foretold me of a place much brighter than this.

I almost couldn't believe them,
Until I made contacted the infamous Mrs. Creativity,
She told I could make it if stayed a little longer.

Telling me to throw away the knife in the cabinet,
I obliged, my hands trembling as it slipped down the garbage.
I could tell my back got lighter as my wings began to spread.

Mr. Lake left me alone last night and I fell asleep in peace.
I couldn't wait to go and tell for showtime.
Oct 2017 · 110
The Lights Across
Skyler M Oct 2017
The lights across the street are lit but mine is out
I can tell it's much darker than last night's route.
I hang onto the tree limbs and lead bones in the house.

The feeling is that I never wanna leave but the skeletons in the closet say otherwise.
Yelling and perfecting my next, new route.
I plead myself guilty as the man with a knife walks out the room.

The lights across the street are gone now, along with mine.
I could tell it's definitely darker than the other night out.
I hang onto the ashen leaves and grim tones in the shed.
Oct 2017 · 210
Hope
Skyler M Oct 2017
Imagine a light,
coming from the end of the tunnel.
That's hope

Imagine your pet,
getting up after being hit by a car.
That's hope

Imagine a child,
their smile from seeing a little candy in your hand.
That's hope

Imagine Darkness,
and you holding hands with her.
That's hope
Oct 2017 · 145
Depression
Skyler M Oct 2017
It's overwhelming.
Can you feel it now?

The emptiness in your chest,
accentuating the boulders on your back.

I'm listening to myself cry,
in the last bathroom stall.

I'm pathetic.
I'd think.
I'm worthless.
I'd think.
I should...

It's those choking realization moments
where you know you're digging yourself deeper.
You can't stop it though.
So the hand reaches for the knife.
Oct 2017 · 590
Got to Sleep
Skyler M Oct 2017
Go to sleep
please.
I've got to sleep
please.

The messages in my brain
won't stop ringing and ringing and ringing
but I cannot pick up the phone
cause my hands are shackled to my sides.

Go to sleep
please.
I've got to sleep
please.

The cold war,
just replays and replays and replays
but I cannot push pause
cause the button is gone.

Go to sleep
please.
I've got to sleep
please.

Brick by Brick
Skyler M Oct 2017
For the land underneath my time
It's a crowd of thunder
from a man into a crow
becomes the king, himself.

Brick by brick
we can build this kingdom
from the bones up
your reign has ended

Now back off
cause I'm taking back what's rightfully mine
fulfilling the prophecy I created
give me your famous last words

I'm sending you down a rabbit hole
why don't you let me know where it goes?
there's something at the end you'll want to see
the anger that infested me now out to get you

Where will you run?
when you've got no place to hide.

Recite The Line
Skyler M Oct 2017
Recite the line,
From under skys,
The light behind your eyes,
From which they will dine.

Recite the line,
Above the crowd,
Much too proud,
Dying inside the mine.

For You
Skyler M Oct 2017
We've reached the end of the earth,
Where the ground has dug up by centuries,
I'm taking your broken wings and hanging them up by the door,
When the lights fade,
And you're by my side,
I'll be hold you up,
as I drown in the dirt.

There's nothing like it now,
The feeling,
Of knowing you have my eyes,
You're guiding me home,
From the black forest.

Can you feel the midnight?
Creep into your veins,
I'm keeping them from red to blue,

For you.

I Doubt It, Dad
Skyler M Oct 2017
They never really told you why,
you could never see the guy who told it's all right.
And maybe you're just over thinking it,
or maybe they hated his guts and wanted him away.

Either way,
I miss his hugs and little fake smiles,
warmed my day and then some more.

Is there something I could have done,
to change the path of his life?
Is there something I could have said,
to make him stay?

He repeats, "It's not your fault"
I doubt.
I doubt,
that's ever been true.

I make myself a bed of bones,
cause I can't feel myself.
All I need is you by my side.

Spine
Skyler M Oct 2017
Call me tonight
Hold my spine
As I give up another heart
Is there anything you can do besides pleasing?
Cause I'm only looking for hope

Grab my spine
There's no more heart
Nothing I do, gives me hope
So, give me yours, tonight
It would be quite pleasing

Anything I can do for you, heart?
You lost your spine,
Bet it feels so pleasing
You don't need any hope.
In the midnight, tonight.

Welcome to Democracy
Skyler M Oct 2017
Welcome.
to Democracy,
where people have the choice
but no one uses their voice.

When.
will we learn that,
in order to change,
We.
gotta make our voice heard.

Then.
the sirens will ring out,
Everyone scatters.
into little holes in the broken earth.

The Young
Skyler M Oct 2017
we are The Young,
the ones who control,
The Fate.

though you might stand alone,
away from The Young.
Standing in my arms,
watching towers fall from grace.

we can start,
all over.
please don't kiss my lips,
I cannot bear the razors in your teeth.

I've gone through nothing,
compared to The Old.

The Fate,
rocks The Old to sleep,
foretelling of,
a brand new world,
but only Time.

only will The Young,
call you to arms.
