Super Sticky Glue

All alone in the world

full of disgrace, and disgust.

 

I never knew anything,

all my thoughts turned to dust.

 

The black and the gold,

this must have been my heart,

turning to dark mold.

 

Crusty and dry,

my high was fading,

and my eyes cried to a certain soul.

 

They all abandoned me,

and left me for dead.

 

As for what they forgot,

was apart of their heart,

that stuck to me like sticky sappy glue.

I couldnt get them off.

 

so i walked around with their sadness,

 carved into my heart.
