times are hard
emotions are strong
buz of golden heaven
time’s so far gone…
but who are we to say where we go
when we hit the floor we’ll never even know.
our bodies are lost in a scence of darkness
no vision past this hell below.
time moves so much slower…
everything slows down
but all of our thought are racing
until we hit the ground.
we can’t control what
we don’t understand…
our brains are shut off
by demons’ demands.
what have we messed up
what has gone wrong
our lives are false truths
of golden liquid songs.
times moves so much slower…
everything slows down
but all of our thoughts are racing
until we hit the ground.
the lights are off
the sun has gone
the night is here
we are done
i will share with you my story
my fable of a life undone
by liquid golden sunshine
misery i have won.
time moves so much slower…
everything slows down
but all of our thoughs are racing
until we hit the ground…
it moves so much slower
we all slow down
our minds are still racing
untill we hit the ground
there’s no going back now
we’ve messed up once again
our disease controls us one more time
our blood is full of sin
time moves so much slower…
everything slows down.
but all of our thoughts are racing
when we hit the floor we’ll never even know.
our bodies are lost in a scence of darkness
no vision past this hell below.
everything slows down
but all of our thought are racing
until we hit the ground.
we don’t understand…
our brains are shut off
by demons’ demands.
what has gone wrong
our lives are false truths
of golden liquid songs.
everything slows down
but all of our thoughts are racing
until we hit the ground.
the sun has gone
the night is here
we are done
my fable of a life undone
by liquid golden sunshine
misery i have won.
everything slows down
but all of our thoughs are racing
until we hit the ground…
we all slow down
our minds are still racing
untill we hit the ground
we’ve messed up once again
our disease controls us one more time
our blood is full of sin
everything slows down.
but all of our thoughts are racing
until we hit the ground…

From Marta
I really like this poem. I get the sense of struggle, regret. The writer seems to be struggling mentally with thoughts that won’t give them peace. Great job!

From: RandiAllenEdge
It’s about the writers struggle with alcohol and addiction, about not knowing were you are when you wake up but not caring and taking that next sip knowing that you’re just wasting away your life. It’s full of personal stories just wrapped up into one package. If you look for the “liquid golden” phrases you’ll see the allusion to alcohol. The writer wants the reader to know that there is much more to an addiction than what the outside world precieves. This is an inside look into what someone who is addicted to something is really like.
