Caffeine Intoxication

 

Inspiration from dead elders

and pain put on paper

is worth nothing to no one

but a brand new sunset

is a miracle to no one

but me

 

windows of black

and walls of white

always appear when an insomniac theater

advertises a caffeine soul

and old hags in black

sing brittle songs

still you throw away the bottle

 

one blister from your fire

is the window I can't conceal

but your eyes will reflect yourself

never...........

The monster on your wall

whose blood you drink

every sunrise

 

i'll never be your saint

i'll never be your Father

i'll never be your best friend

when i'm gone

the moon I made will carry

the scars of your passing

 

scars which adore your joy

and accept my pain

until the next sunset
