You whispered my name in the darkness
You held me in strong bleeding arms
The red trickled down, staining my skin
But it love to wear this color
I opened my eyes in the morning
Woke up in the gutter again
But you carried me home, I hear your heart through your chest
And it's breaking.
I did this
But the whore of my heart is still walking these streets
Desperate and used like before
You built us a house and we both settled down
But my eyes are just fixed on the door
I stagger around in the bar lights and taxi cab life
The red now an evening dress easily shed
The smear of red lips have tasted too many,
Advertising tonight, just tell me you love me
Baby I love you so much, hehe, oops! I just kissed you,
I think I'm pretty drunk, hehehe
Oh What the hell? Lets just call it love tonight! hehe! C'mere...
"I love you"
and the whore of my heart is still walking these streets
Desperate and used like before
You built us a house and we both settled down
But my eyes are just fixed on the door
"I love you"
Oh shit! It's his voice and he's found me again
I vomit, I'm bleeding, bleary eyed and filth-covered, hideous, half naked, wretched--oh he won't even recognize--
Me...please don't recognize me
Oh God, no, no, please go away.
I mean it, God, please go away!
No I'm filthy! No! Stop it!
Please somebody help!
Don't come near me.
You're all spotless and perfect
And handsome
And clean
And I...
I'm me...
And the whore of my heart is still walking these streets
Desperate and used like before
You built us a house and we both settled down
But my eyes are just fixed on the door
He just looked for a while at my utter disgrace
And the pain in his eyes made me flinch
I can't now remove that last sight of his face
When he said, "I still love you"
"I still love you"
And he carried me home in bloody arms yet again.
Somehow washing and staining all at the same time
And I cried down his broken heart, breaking my own
And swore I'd never go back,
God ill never go back!
Now I'm back...
Damn...
And though the whore of my heart is still walking these streets
Just as desperate and used like before,
I dream of the house where we both settled down
And know here I've found something more
Oh chase me down.
Great writing girl! You understand more of the broken human condition than many Christians much older than you. You must never forget, no matter the darkness, no matter the brokenness, it is incomparable to the power, might and glory of God. There is always hope, because God has brought hope to the hopeless who are in hopeless situations.
ReplyDeleteIt seems like evil is more powerful because it follows no rules. But good will always win because the author of Good is much greater than all Evil. Trust in His goodness; trust in His might; trust in Him, because the answer to Evil is God Himself.
