Nose bleeds

Like starched regalia, I’m cold, thoughtless; my soul is in a freeze.

Mothers eye see through me and I’m no longer desperate to scream.

Father has become a child, ripped and weak at the seams.

Jezebel plays, melancholy has plagued this living thing.

Sometimes, brothers sit and talk about unicorns and rainbows, sister’s brew on moments of wild gun fire, sometimes; everything just isn’t what it seems

Truths are shallow, lies are deep,

In hope we wallow, in tears we sink

We will wait on a new star for just a thousand years

The light that will extinguish our fears

A new sun to dry up our tears

This wait causes me to bleed

This wait, this pain

Like nosebleed, we hope someday it’ll go away

and be free.
