Literature Text

If all [we] have is all that’s damaged
If it really is all said and [done]
If she’s left standing, holding her [tongue]
What [war] is it really
That [we’ve] won?

If I open my [mouth]
Can you [breathe] so easily?
If I [stretch] this mind
Out of its bounds of [safety]
Will you [survive]?
With tubes and [wires]
[Cuts], bruises, broken bones
I know we’ve finally made it [home].

Will you [give] up everything you’ve made
For [my] one small mistake
Of letting my [words] flow awkwardly?
Have you ever felt so [poor] as one
When you’re [one] with me?
Your [brown] eyes say so
Through all the [stories] they’ve told.

If I [clench] nails into my fist
Do you feel the [skin] break?
It must be you who feels my [hate]
Against all the [love] you seem to create.
It [drains] you of all the pain
But also of the [bliss]
Let’s [you] wander through a mouth
With one last [kiss]...
Goodnight
"People survive.
You are living proof."
