El Fin
With wounded eyes I cross the street
Headlights signal my defeat, someone
scrape me off of my demise
Terrified cars screech and halt
My bleeding limbs immersed with salt,
dig a hole and throw my soul inside
Cause there is no way I’m coming out
of this alive
With CPR and urgent care I still
can’t be revived
The traffic didn’t kill me but it
finished off the rest
Fill the void to patch this heart
shaped hole in my chest
I should have ran to miss the cars
I should have hid to avoid the scars
that you have carved in me
If I had known this beforehand
The future would have not been
planned and my life would remain incomplete
Take back all the things you said
Remove the whispers from my head
Erase all of the memories
My hands are shaking I’m on my knees
But I can’t change these things
You’ve peeled apart my wings
