Explain to Me
Explain to me
Why you’re on your knees
Begging to please
You want to love me
Please be still
Close your eyes
Spill
Sliding down your mouth
Tied up in silence
Pain you bear
In memories you burned
What was left of innocence
Melting under your skin
I dig in
Below
I ponder
Through your mind I wander
So I place glass inside your wounds
You lose yourself too soon
So I cover your eyes
I count your tears
In silent cries
As you fade in the candle light
Tonight you slip in tune
With the movement of the marks
Placid
Forcefully down
Dig your hands into the ground
Not a single sound
Except your breath
Living life
Touching death
Feeling the pain
Remember why
For we have everything to lose
And until we do
We have nothing to gain
