Something to Prove [April 8, 2016]A Poem by Dillan CourtrightI see the darkness, in your eyes Like a shadow, you’re in disguise In your mind, you see me cry In your hands, you bring demise
In my mind, you are the truth My own heart, I cannot soothe I’m not here, with something to prove I’m just here to heal my bruise
You bring me sorrow, you bring me fears I fight for tomorrow, with no tears You bring me pain, through all the years I leave your stain, at the pier
You see the clouds, in my eyes You make me wish, that I could die Like a drought, my tears are dry And all is gone, like the tide
The emptiness you left inside Boils in the heat, beneath your eyes The hatred, in which you reside Cyanide will be your ride
You bring me sorrow, you bring me fears I fight for tomorrow, with no tears I slit your throat, beneath the stairs I bury you without a care
By cyanide, in my mind By drowning, undefined By cutting, in a bind You are dead in my eyes
In my mind, you were the truth Now you’re dead, beneath a booth I wasn’t here, with something to prove But now you’re dead, with no proof © 2017 Dillan Courtright |
