For You.
Hid you deep down under,
Chained in the back.
Locked.
Shoved aside for you,
I'll fight that war.
My monsters subdued short-term,
But i'll conquer yours.
Watch that frown turn into something new.
I'm still covering your back,
Yet mine is scarred.
My hands are bloodied;
Innocent,
Guilty,
No longer keeping up.
I see that wide, unforgettable smile once again.
I'm dead,
Bruised and battered.
My desire to see the next day gone,
Brutal and satisfying,
The last breath for you.
Chained in the back.
Locked.
Shoved aside for you,
I'll fight that war.
My monsters subdued short-term,
But i'll conquer yours.
Watch that frown turn into something new.
I'm still covering your back,
Yet mine is scarred.
My hands are bloodied;
Innocent,
Guilty,
No longer keeping up.
I see that wide, unforgettable smile once again.
I'm dead,
Bruised and battered.
My desire to see the next day gone,
Brutal and satisfying,
The last breath for you.
