...Expired Echoes

Synapses of sorrow
Bleeds the memories of a failed tomorrow
My thoughts are nothing more than kaleidoscope visions
Beckoning the next incision
Into the chaos of the only answer I could envision
How was I to know the catastrophic results of my decision?
How am I to even care?
when I needed you—You weren’t there
This weapon of war
Burdened with thoughts of being no more
I take these pills to even the score
Feelings of extasy and illusion
Eradicate all of my confusion
Wrapped in a blanket of criminal desires
I set myself on fire
But you see I no longer feel
No need to ever heal
Scar me with these weapons of war
Another shot or three and perhaps I’ll be no more
If I survive
You know tomorrow I will strive
Outdo the failures of yesteryear
Take another bottle of pills and kiss my own tears
Sure you’ll cry and wonder why
You never understood how long ago, I died…
