Wishes - Useless, But Intact
written by Star


i am trapped inside an amazing darkness
amazing because of its endlessness
dark because of its complete loss of light
no glimmer or sparkle
and trapped, because, well theres no way out
the lights may go out and it will not get any darker
than it already is inside of me

i think when i grow up
i would like to be a storm cloud
to thunder and lightning and fall down like rain
is perhaps the only way i could ever tell you how i fell
fade like the thunder, fall like the rain

split the sky in two
so that we may see what is really above it
light up the darkness of living
so that we may envision the great beyond

some people claim the human body
has no memory of physical pain
i wish they were right

and if the lights go out it will not matter
i will light my clothes on fire
and lead the way to the dollar store
where the light starved masses can gorge themselves
on 2 for $1 scented candles

i wish i could cut a hole in the top of my skull
to let the rain fall in
and wash my brain
