from a to zed

Aching hearts and plastered smiles
Blank faces and silent conversations
Come save me from this nightmare.

Darkness slowly incases my body
Exhale and shut everything outside
Forget all of the bad, and some of the good.

Give into temptations and demons
Hand over heart, heartbeat slowing
Inhale, beg for a new beginning to live.

Jacinth-incrested heart shaped necklace
Kept in a box to hide forgotten pasts.

Love comes in to save the day
Move with sympathy and ecstasy
Nearing the end of the deepest turmoil.

Omit every excess detail in your mind
Pray for a miracle, pray to be saved
Quiet the urge to break under pressure.

Reconstruct your soul with soggy news prints
Sweep all of the secrets under the cupboard
Turn away from the lights shining through you.

Uncover monsters and forgotten pasts
Venerate the lost souls long forgotten
Whisper their names into the stale air.

Xenophobic club house rules created
Yield to anybody crossing your path
Zaffre eyes once staring in now look out.
