not untitled anymore

A Poem by carpe noctem

follow me friend

I'll show you where to hide

those bruises

you come to school with

those empty eyes

I see you see me with

Trust me my friend

I'll teach you

teach you how to wear short sleeves

and tell you alternatives

to cuts and burns

those sleepless eyes

I see you see nothing with

Come friend

I'll help you walk

through the dark streets

you wont go out alone anymore

the world wont stop spinning

neither will you

the lifelessness of your eyes

say things will never be the same

here friend

I'll show you how to stop

and take you places you need to go

I know it's hard

but you have to want it

those bloodshot eyes

I see you haven't seen solber in over a year

Now I'm gonna go away

So tell me my friend

why do we have to live like this?

Why do expect nothing more

than life has to offer?

think about this dear friend

go and choose your own trail

and follow me no more.
