DEFENDER'S RAP

• (verse 1)
• Heavy weighed memories lay on your tear-stained cheek
• As you struggle to sleep, showing scars on your wrist; bleak.
• The scars that haunt you from the past;
• the scars that make the tears fall fast.
•  
• The demons that loom over your head
• like a clouded sky that just won’t go
• from over sodden pavements and many sullen faces
• and the rainbows, hills, umbrellas, trees and birds it chases
•  
• The words that feel like salt straight into a deep wound
• as you dip your hands in the sea of tears till, they’re pruned
• the knife in your hand thinking about it
• ending your life, calling it quits
•
