Capeside Rock

The sound of my breath
flutters past your ear
Tearing down fear
Grasp your heart strings
by their frayed ends
to choke down the feeling left inside
The sands of time
slide down your cheek
in the form of
liquefied dreams
Each one stands for
more than the next
You give yourself
to all but you
To take all you
had and give all thats left
How could you have been so blind?
The shallow waters
that you come upon,
show how empty
your life truly is
You look into the vast
nothingness to see
something that
is not there
You try to discern where to go from here
You try to
make sense of this confusion that you
have inside
And how you can get there.
[this van is on a one way trip we'll rock it straight to hell,
our Crue is Motley and our theatres filled with pain,
across the creek
and into your home,
be there by eight because she doesn't want you any other way]
But by a force unknown
Deep
inside
you,
your veins tied in knots
Bind your blistering hands
To keep you
in this
world
for-
saken
As you
leave your
wilting soul behind.
