life is hard, your coming back.



life is hard, your coming back.
But stronger, you seem to wonder.

Your coming back. Your hurting me, to where  my body
Doesn’t communicate.

Your coming back. The tiredness, the hurtless fights,
The dirtiness. the everything.

Your coming back. Please dont see my wings,
before I swing on the ropes.

Your coming back, shouldve of known the signs.
But my dimes shine. Like a night in Antartica.

Your coming back. Your hurting me worse.
You shout and scream, but when I want
Ice cream, you say “what’s the dreams?”

Your coming back. I can’t eat nor sleep,
Why is it like this?

Your coming back. Is life even real? Im questioning
This like I question myself.

Your coming back. Cutting and hiding.

Your coming back. I won’t pull up my sleeves
To the bees bite. Even if they already did twice.

Your coming back. Dont lie about going downtown
I get frowns from the clowns.

Your coming back. River point has nothing on me.
Expect the rivers and the points.

Life is hard, your coming back. Among
The stars, you dose off into the night,
But came back the next days.

Life is hard, your coming back.


_Tinsley Wearstler
