Miranda Lambird

Hey how you been? I hope you're doing alright
It seems like you're better from the posts I see time to time
I know we haven't talked in a while
It's 'cause I'm still a mess, in fact I'm doing worse somehow
But I just want you to know
I'm glad you're doing better and staying sober
because I'm still drinking myself to sleep
at least a couple of nights every week
because it's really hard to survive
I wake up each day wishing I weren't alive
But seeing you happy gives me hope
That one day my life won't just be me trying to cope
So even though we don't talk anymore
I'm really glad that we knew each other

Broken Mirror

blood saturated hands
glass decorated floors
an isolated mind
over stimulated nerves

open wounds, closed doors
blood occludes, the sores
and the reflections, refract
so obscure

dead silence now
yet violence stirs
the turbulence lingers
the malevolence heard

open wounds, closed doors
blood occludes, the sores
and the reflections, refract
so obscure

a contorted mess
a distorted view
multifaceted eyes
provide tainted images

open wounds, closed doors
blood occludes, the sores
and the reflections, refract
so obscure
from this broken mirror
this broken mirror
my friend, my friend
you will not leave here
my friend, my friend
you'll not leave this broken mirror
