pain.

pain.

A Poem by joeysick
"

was bored and just wrote what was on my mind

"

i see colors in black and blue

it’s true what they say

heartbreak is always a few stops away

how do you stop the car when you’re not even driving it?

how do you kill a pumping heart? easy, by depriving it

step into my mind and you will float

some of my thoughts are translucent

but ain’t it stupid how your suffering is another person’s amusement?

people tell you to run

but don’t tell you where to go or how to get there

as if there’s some taxi and we just pay the fare

which isn’t fair because for all i know

my death is someone else’s prayer

and i’ll be gone as if death and i had an affair
