Teach Me How To Pull The Trigger (Poem), by YourEyesMyWords Subscribe to rss feed for YourEyesMyWords

the window is blurry,
and covered in rain.
they're like mini bullets
falling from the sky.

the floor refelcts,
a shadow from the dark.
the curests me,
even though it is still daylight.

i have my silver led pencil,
writing on this paper.
almost perfect,
like all of them,
but no one is perfect.

the hair falls in front my face,
i look between each peace of thread
that is connected with my scalp.
but i do not even bother,
to blow it out of my face.

i imagine,
and see,
an image of two children,
running from each other
in a field of grass,
far off in the plains.

oh how i wish i were there,
kicking my feet up into the air,
in my slightly dirty sneakers
but yet,
they never invite me...

and yet i remember their words,
all hit me like knives.
and as i sit here,
in the corner of my room,
all i ask of you,
is teach me how to pull the trigger...
