4.9.08 Poem by J.M Berger

I was lost for what seemed like centuries
Left for dead in the center of the sky
Caught just below the sun in a twister and levitating
And the only rain was the tears that I cried

And when the tears dried up I was so warm
My skin it was cracked like a sidewalk
And I felt so disgusting and hated
That I never wanted to touch down with the earth again

So instead I said goodbye
I fell into a stark dream sky scape
White stardust clouded my eyes
I never forgot the taste of the dark...
