Ice TraysA Poem by James WellsWhere do you go when you're not around A savior that's bloodied and battered It's not like we're breaking new ground Strike up a match, a cigarette my darling Tell the world that you don't care When you know you're falling How does it feel to know The world's burning beneath your feet Crashing cars in our streets How does it feel to show Curtains rise, the show goes on The mime rolls out, the star's gone. I've asked you a million times before Did you close the freezer When you walked out my door Melt away from surreptitious thoughts Manage close your mangled clots Knowing you've lost How does it feel to know The world's burning beneath your feet Crashing cars in our streets How does it feel to show Curtains rise, the show goes on The mime rolls out, the star's gone. How does it feel to fade away A savior bloodied, battered beneath your feet How does it feel to have no say Close the door and melt within my sheets How does it feel to know That you are all alone © 2013 James Wells |
