Living Breathing Contradiction...

Prayer and Confusion

Rate this Entry
BLACK, WITH SPARKLING FLAKES,
AM I LOOKING AT THE SKY.
THE SMELL OF SMOKE IN THE AIR
I MUST BE LYING BY A FIRE
NUMBNESS FLOWING THROUGH MY BODY
I MUST BE VERY TIRED

PERMEDICS, FIREMEN, OFFICERS
I WONDER WHAT IS GOING ON
NEEDLES, TUBES, OXYGEN
I WANT IT GONE
FUZZY THOUGHTS, SPINNING VISION
I CLOSE MY EYES JUST FOR A MINUTE

BRIGHT LIGHTS, EVERYTHING IS WHITE
I WONDER IF I'M DEAD
THE BURNING, LIQUID FIRE IN MY VEINS
I SCREAM, I CRY, WHATS HAPPENING TO ME
NURSES, DOCTORS, COME RUNNING ALL AT ONCE
WHY AM I IN A HOSPITLE, THIS JUST DON'T MAKE SENCE
NEEDLE...SYRINGE...THEY''RE GIVING ME A SHOT
I CANT HANG ON, FLOATING, DRIFTING TO SLEEP

CHILD, DITCH, TREE..
ITS ALL COMING BACK TO ME
SPEEDING, INTOXICATED
I NEVER THOUGHT IT COULD HAPPEN TO ME
THE BURNS, THE CUTS, THE SEARING PAIN
I WONDER IF THE CHILDS OK, I DIDNT EVEN KNOW HER NAME

OFFICERS, OFFICERS, INVADING MY ROOM
YOU LIE! YOU LIE! SHE DIDNT DIE!
WAIT, WHATS THAT, YOU SAID SHE WAS ALIVE
I CRY, I PRAY, I THANK GOD THE CHILD WAS SAVED...
