Road

Road

Walking that road again figuratively and physically
It’s cold but I can bear

I’d rather be walking here with you home safely
Then to be crawling back to there

I walk alone as it seems they had done a number this time
You’re not here to hold me near

Walking down a broken road in faded jeans and a hoodie
With nothing but my own fear

Lights flash at me as I walk alone
and I turn around to see

It’s you in that car flashing your lights to get my attention
I stop walking and you pull up next to me

You roll down the window and I glare at you
You smile a gracious smile

I’d rather run a thousand years
Than to walk without you for a mile

But I keep on walking as it starts to rain
Every inch of my clothes get wet with every drop

I cant be with you It would hurt you if you knew
‘Get in’ you say but I don’t stop

I ignore your comfort, your kindness, and your love
As tears flow down disgrace clearly written on my face

You tell me ‘we are not perfect, no one is,’
I laugh and say ‘I can’t it isn’t my place’

‘Isn’t your place?’ you ask I seem to have your curiosity
Though it won’t be long till you’ll know what I’ve done

‘Nothing you will understand,’ I tell you,
You keep driving next to me, a whore is what I’ve become

‘Let me try?’ You ask and I stop walking
I glare at you with my crimson eyes

You watch my boyish features with amusement as your own eyes flash crimson red
I’m surprised for a moment and then reply[i]‘I cant…everyone always dies’[/i]

‘let me be the one who lives’ you tell me and I smile
Tears now flowing down my face as dark as the rain

Maybe for once I could try to love you instead of being a whore
With you I can let all of these bad memories flush down the drain
