What is life?
Blackbird
Life skipped vinyl
A metal monologue of pain
A chorus played in reverse
A spiked needle of regret
There
In silence
against noise
I knew
what we were
There
In silence
against norm
I knew
what we lost
My sky bled black label
as the needle tore a hole
ripping the melody in half
of our song
blood filled my eyes
but you were gone
life is regret played backwards
at least life for now
