A Damp Pillow and Sleepless Nights are My Fate

Yesterday's eyeliner

And last night's tears

Form smudged bruises

A weary smile

And aching bones

Hide nothing

But no one asks

All the right questions

So the shards of truth

Remain embedded in my soul

Twisting and jabbing

With each pointless breath
