Poem: In the blink of an eye

i stopped shooting up
because it strangled my soul
i keep digging graves
to make me feel whole

ive stolen the sky
to show you the blue
i stopped getting high
to show you its true

i tore down these walls
to let the light in
this is the end
this is where I begin

i walked through the field
and watched as it grew
collecting the seeds
to bring them to you

i looked in their eyes
to see if they knew
but they came in disguise
so i didnt have a clue

i talked until i stalled
until the tank had run dry
i filled it with love
to feel more alive

i rose to my feet
and started to walk
with no words to speak
i invaded the dark

i wrote you a song
i cant even fucking whistle
but ill give it to you
so you can sing it to her

i wanted to sink
but you taught me to swim
all i know is your love
is a wonderful thing.
