[lewis, mistreated]
let the child never wake
to inherit this world of a mess
we've made
spare'em such horrors as pain
and death
instead
just skip on ahead to
eternal rest
yes,
i think thats best
yes,
there are some sacrifices
first kisses
good friendships
a loving hand to hold
the spark of life in the cold
these are all fine and dandy things
but come too few and
far between
let my child just stay asleep
please
for him
for me
rest eternal
peace

[aimer, travaillir, et souffrir]
polka-dotted spotted fairy-tales
&
childhood fantasy.
dead-like druck, chicken luv
red-rimmed eyes never see.
suicide bastard from a
teenaged disaster
magnified
ten thousand times
iron lung disease
addiction lines cut thru permission
throw salt in wounds to heal the vision
heal me!
lovers wasted all their
true confessions
on
childhood fantasy.
