Petunia

Go on then be silent, you're only skin and bone, who am I to license, censor what you say, the only song I own, sung on this sunlit highway, a taste that asks why, penetrates my soul, I float along lighter, are you one to state, the only pain is home, look at my face, this shell of my silence, has no need to groan, strung out on quietness, sing as you pray, don’t try to console, no one makes your day, calls upon you to brighten, all you don't know, what makes me frightened, is ending up alone.
