Every Night
he dreams, he screams
carves on cream skin
the sorrow of his soul
he falls, he crawls
his nails draw on the floor
the chaos in his mind
he tries, he lies
how everything is nice
he cries, he dies
a little every night
he fights, he bites
purple marks he hides
scattered on his arm
he shakes, he breaks
because everything it takes
to live is too much
he lies, he tries
to answer all the why’s
he cries, he dies
a little every night
