SHATTERED...!!

No Wishes Well©

By Leticia Courtney

I want to run away

Inside my bright red scream

I want to break the doors

Holding back my dream

Living like this

Checking the skies for rain

A constant reminder

Of this burden and pain

I'm holding on to

A shooting star

Its points cutting my skin

This time it's gone too far

Nothing left to wish on

My bloody star fell

Left me drowning in hopes

Inside my wishing well

Not looking for a hero

To owe such a debt

I could not ask for saving

This loss is not a regret

I want to run away

But there's nothing out there

I want to shatter windows

That look out on nowhere

This is not lifeIf I'm already dead

My bleeding heart stopped beating

And tears I no longer shed.
