Drawing Stickmen

Poem

Hospital trips I'm tweaking a bit

I should have stopped them

They wouldn't quit

Open up, your hand in mine

We were busy, passing time

All this sunlight kissed our skin

Red with color drawing stickmen

Open up, you're facing life

I don't need to, see the light

Everybody found a way

To get up off from this couch today

I can't find it, waste again

God is selfish, we're not friends

We pondered why

Your secrets seem to hide

When I spoke

I always lied to you

All of my stories, the heroes die

They were killed defending you

Hospital trips I'm tweaking a bit

Wings will fly and asses sit

Open up, your hand in mine

We were busy, killing time

All this moonlight shadowed skin

Dark with color drawing stickmen

Open up, you're facing death

Why must my soul, toy with my head

Confront my mornings with hot caffeine

Bites to suck toxin from bloodstreams

I can't find it, wasted friends

God should flood the world again
