gone

watch the world melt

watch it freeze

it drips like blood through my veins

but you don't see it evaporate

you know i wont be here

you know that i’ll be gone

so you whisper your tears

but in this moment

you still hold ignorance

watch the rain fall

watch it tear it apart

listen to the cries

do you see her clouds

watch them leak

know the smile

know its fake

is this just a dream

will i someday wake

climb to the top of the mountain

feel the wind

and break it down

skip across the lake

don't look below

don't see the faces

you know they’re there

and they’re begging

let them be free

before they drown

you know that these are just scribbles

spilled out by a broken heart

the wounds have been there for too long

watch the world

fall into memories

go through time

but eternity is but a second

and a second holds all of eternity

so bury your pains

as you bury the body

and look at the sky

and try not to cry

as you know it will be gone

and never return

chains

thousands of tiny little drums pitterpated in rhythm with each other, each so quiet no one seems to hear the individual. and each drum will only ever played once, and never be heard again. she listened to each individual drum and recognized them as they fell. some were left unnoticed, but you can only watch so many water droplets as they fall from the sky. she watched through the one little window in her room. it didn't have much of a view, but it was the only connection to the outside she had. she wished she had a way to open it and feel the droplets beat on her hand as they did with the rest of the world. she could hear voices walk closer to her little room and she focused all of her attention on the rain in attempt to escape her reality. she held her breath as the voices passed her room. she would have a little longer before the next operation. she went back to the music of the rain. there was still a vague memory left of what it was like to be out in the rain. the sky had turned grey and misty and seemed to be releasing all its held back emotions. she remembered the wetness the world had been enveloped in and the streams that were collected in the streets. a click signaled the opening of the door. she turned quickly and threw her back against the wall behind her trying to get away with no where to go. the doctor grabbed the chains on her wrist and she held back the tears of pain and followed as to suffer the lesser evil.
