lost

2013

he told me to stay away

from the wildflowers

i was too stubborn to listen

i wandered off into the forest

only to find what i thought would glisten

something that’ll give me a new light

a new sense of touch

and sight

all it did was destroy me

mentally

physically

my mind

my mine

my thoughts

are all intertwined

i just need someone to save 

me one last time

i didn’t mean any harm

not to you or to anyone else

this is just a lesson i’ve got 

to teach myself

leave me

although i need saving

before i die

let ‘em know…

love is my only craving.
