But still. Nevertheless.
Always. Forever. Never. Eternity.
Sharp. Trouble. Chaos. Silence.
Over & Over.
Thin and Razor-sharp. Old & faded. New. Crisscrossed.
Ashes and Dust.
Always & forever & never & for all eternity.
(though, I imagine they're all the same)
Ungrateful child. Wretched child. Vicious, Stray, Lost child.
But, everyone deserves a lullaby.
And God doesn't forsake any of his children.
Except, the words are gone.
Cut & strewn & scattered in the wind
(like the letters you never sent)
And the frozen moments knock the wind out of me,
sometimes.
I think they must be memories.
Except I keep forgetting what I should remember
while other thoughts come unbidden
Wicked girl. Cruel girl. Sharp, Angry, Crumbling girl.
Always on Fire.
