Stare

On her death bed 
Howling at the moon 
Serenity devoured by the demons in bloom 
She said 
“I wish I could see heaven father but I have sinned 
these are cracks within my bones 
these are bruises on my skin 
am I right am I wrong 
give one reason to go on 
I wish I was your perfect ten 
I wish I could transcend” 
Do you just stare? 
Would you take my hand? 
Do you just stare? 
Please take my hand 
Don't just stare 
You've shown no mercy 
You've watched my pain 
A gift-wrapped nothing is all you ever gave 
A daughter cries 
A brother runs 
A mother screams in twisted tongues 
A father hangs his head in shame 
No one left to blame
