BLANK By Madi Maha
You are my sunshine... I remember left-footed waltzing In condensation of cotton candy At the back of a rusty carnival cart And when the painted smile on my face wasn't a lie
My only sunshine... I was your blackbird the Beatles sang about And two birds of a feather Were supposed to stay together ‘Till I had to leave the nest
You make me happy... Wait. This isn't right, you shouldn't have this mental trick Upon your temple Kings are supposed to be rulers in a strong hearty line With the stories you always read starting with, "Once Upon A Time"
When skies are gray... Daddy's little girl doesn't know how to react Demons and thoughts keep screaming with every heart attack The words to sing get choked up in my throat You always did it for me when I couldn't stay afloat
You'll never know dear... Why was I the last thing we spoke of as you told me to fly The surgery was scheduled as planned, you weren't supposed to die The doctors came and told my family Barely able to mutter that they were sorry
How much I love you... What happened to safety What happened to home What happened to the little girl
