The Kind of Lullaby that Doesn't let you Sleep

The Kind of Lullaby that Doesn't let you Sleep

A Poem by T.Marie
"

2 cartons of cigarettes and 3 bottles of gin they do nothing to sooth the pain I'm in

"
Traded my soul in for the heart of somebody else
But the lights in the chandelier began to fade
If only my attempt had worked
You wouldn't be lying in dirt

Your voice still sings to me
Not the type that lets you sleep
2 cartons of cigarettes and 3 bottles of gin
The warmth you gave me
won't seem to stay in

I'm going insane
From the pain
That you have left me, it ignites me
Don't hate me, don't despise me

How far will I go?
I don't know
Knife to skin
Man I really shouldn't have drank those bottles of gin

All this darkness
Will it harness
The loneliness
That's on my chest

Hold me while I drown
Make sure to smile
Please don't frown

It's not over
All this pain
Turns out it would have left anyways
