Keys to Paradise

It’s the secret of the winners

That’s why I never got it

I come to find the savoir,

In your eyes

All my frozen winters

Face to blame for the garden

At least I couldn’t say that I tried

Fall apart at the softest setback of darkness

Dampened towers cry above to the

Highest liar’s loving heart

All my partial poems come as painless fillers

I may never be as strong as you like

But the way you look at me

Is such a silent killer

Hold me a close and tell me I’m alright

Up all night just thinking of the ways to remain here

Mourn the silences that one time held

The key to paradise

I kept running down from heights that I remember

Those were times that I treasured like a child

Pick this body up because I know I’m better

And I fell upon the ground with a sigh

Little bandages add up to a coffin baby

But I get hopeful every time I see you crack your little smile
