heart money

 

 

right now
i bet she's sitting there
still
stuck inside an awful stare
wondering why there's no love in her life

a look that pulls the tears outside
from their out of sight lives
take in the poison oxygen of no one who cares

    she traded all her heart's money
    for a sick, broken down body

tonight
i know she'll look around
for
the nearest thought to take her out
past the wasteland, bitter paradise that is her life

when she feels the echo swell
inside her hollowed out shell
so used to the ring
that it is hard to believe
that it is hard to believe

    she traded all her heart's money
    for a sick broken down body

 

 

here's to inspiration
