Heart DecayA Poem by Jasmine S. EdwardsLyrics to the Song; "Tom's Diner" by Suzanne Vega
I was searching for a Way To stop my heart from a deacy I was watching the wind blow, Out the window as my dre ams go. I didn’t know what I would find, Something that poured out my mi nd A thing that he should repay, For W hat He had done on that day. I heard gu nshots By the door, I knew exactly who it’s for, He had took away a friend. For that mistake he had to end. Was it ri- ght to take a life, Of a man who had A new wife? But he took a way A heart, For that I tore him Apart. His blood Covered the floor, and my tears began to pour. Tears not of sadness, but joy, for getting rid of this heartless boy.
Heart… I am not say ing it was right, what I did to him that night. He got aw ay with murder of his first, seco nd third or. Police in the end came, in my heart I have this shame, of a de ath that may have caused some pain, but my heart won’t decay, not in vain. Rage is a scary event, it gives your mind time to vent. I tried to buy me some time, but police caught me with reason and rhy me.. Now sittin In a jail cell, I get no calls or mail I Look up at th e sky and wanting a rope to tie. My body will weather Away, my heart will dec ay. I am floating all the way through death course, I can almost hear your voice. © 2013 Jasmine S. Edwards |
