Dear god
If I close my eyes
And sleep tonight
Will you show me the light?
Dear mom
I slept in your bed
And he wept when he read
That I was gone
My brother
Came into my room
When I came to
And I thought he was you
But the bark around my heart won't peel off
As my body slowly rots
I'm sorry but I want to be alone
I love you but all of my seeds are sewn
Your eyes
Widened in my dreams
And your smile was complete
But I am empty
I was lost
In my hollow nest
When she told me
That I'd never be happy
I remember
When she laid in the dark with me
And we gave all of the ghosts we could see
A name
But the bark around my heart won't peel off
As my body slowly rots
I'm sorry but I want to be alone
I love you but all of my seeds are sewn
