workS besT wheN it'S brokeN
written by MintyFreshGirl07:10 AM 3/24/05IT WORKS BEST WHEN IT'S BROKEN
* This heart of mine,
it works best when it's broken
it pumps the red life-syrup
through slits for skin to soak in
This voice of mine, *
it works when I'm not choking
on salt and blood and bitter thorns
of words I haven't spoken
* This mind of mine,
it works best when it's open
un-hinging in the darkness
of secrets it's been cloaked in
This soul of mine, *
it works just like a token
trade it in for some cheap prize
before its worth has soaked in
* These dreams of mine,
these dreams remain unbroken
but I am waiting for the day
when I will be awoken. * |
