The Velvet Burns

This is something I wrote a little while ago.

Is this goodbye
Or a new hello
Acid and distraction
When statics push
It comes to shove
Did we think we'd really find
What it was
Our hopeless hearts
Had tried to leave behind
So we wandered down
The highway singing
And the highways signed
By walking victims
And half the time
My Ringing ears
In silver chains
The Velvet burns

Disguises get
cast aside
It's picturesque
And Hollow graphic
Monkeys must be caged
So Raise a glass
Incase we cant
Replace the days we threw away
And never ask the question
Where is that place I've always chased
But never seen a mention
Second guess till nothing's left
The very best of bad intentions

wow... i cant.... As i was reading at first i was like "okay" but then everything just... fell together and i could feel each words rightness as i read it. Still not entirely sure i understand the sentiments if i am honest though xD

Agree with LucidWarrior, you took me on a journey.

Nice work, thanks for sharing.

Equal parts; losing your mind and not being sure if you want to find it again/ falling in love with someone your not sure you'll ever have...

To be honest I'm not even sure what I was getting at.

Thanks lucid!
I really appreciate.

P.s. I fell asleep before I could enjoy more of your writing.
I'll have to check more out after work today

@Kilgore I'm glad to hear it!
