Replying to a comment on:
lost in the riptide (Free verse) by killingjuliet
One step closer to the edge
One sip away from catharsis
One hunger pang away from starvation
I cannot cover my eyes anymore
This nation is facing devastation.
And Iâm sick of all the he said, she said
And Iâm sick of your last name
Iâm sick of all the cowards
And I want somewhere to place the blame.
Somewhere in the black and white
They lost track of what is wrong and right
And I feeling the burning shame
You cannot erase yourself, your past, your name.
Youâre lying right next to me,
But you feel a galaxy away
Iâm down, Iâm wounded, Iâm your prey
Iâm analyzing every word that you say
Trying to figure out who youâre playing today
Itâs not scripted, or rehearsed
But thereâs a chorus and refrain
Itâs just another ordinary day
Youâre looking a bit pale now dear
Are you feeling okay?
