Fathers funeral... family show of... my death site!

By pyrosfire

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Light me on fire Upon our place of rest Peace and sanity Fake and false... Our family tree See you on Sunday My fathers death nest Cry and criticize Go and cleanse your minds Of hatred your heart grows inside Haven’t seen me in what? 10 years or so Go ahead and speak of me While my back is turned In tears on the front side Brother, father, lover, All seen in blood And relation Heart is obscene Until you show how your money gleams! Facade... No emotion in screams Father, brother, lover, Was gone on Christmas Eve And all that is seen is vanity and greed In me... Winter in all states Maybe later family will create and breathe Emotional incubus mistakes me For what it should see... Higher branches on this family Where money seeks the deep chest bleed Cling and heave On what you thought was real Alcohol in me Quit? Swing on one tree to come right back Father, brother, lover End up eventually Boxed and craving... No life in the living alcohol feed So... Father, brother, lover Go on and creep upon his casket Soon you will see me The same as he!say what you please :) Written December 29th, 2001 © on Dec 28 2001 06:10 PM PST   18 • 0 • 1
