Prophecy- by: unknown forgotten


It went like this:
The sky was darkening
Like a slow moving apocalypse
We watched the clouds move like ashes blowing in the wind
The heart was pumping life
But the mind was dead with cancer
Each thought poisoned with death and doubt
I looked at you but you were elsewhere
Somewhere stranded staring into headlights
Or was it me?
I reached to pull us back to safety
I had seen heaven in those moments of fear
But a demon had just walked in the door and was sitting on my shoulder
He told me I would never win
I stared forward and the speeding car hit me
Your back was turned and I don't know if you shed a tear
I don't think you would understand
No one ever told me to look twice
No one ever told me to take the ball and run
Even now my back is broken with a rib puncturing my heart
Your kiss can cure me and let me walk again
But you walked away with them demon instead
And my blood spills from under the bandages
While the demon learns and licks it off the floor
