stiffled by time
stiffled at birth
lost in transit
stumbling into oblivion
.
unearthed love
dug from the ruins
of empty bottles
and the bottom of that fifth
.
mind numbing drugs
the glamorous end
wide steps
towards loosing another tomorrow
.
it looms there
three more taps on the snooze
the clock escapes
through newly opened windows
.
tick tock
tick tock
find it there
on the lawn
purposely placed amongst greenery vines
wrapped around the hearts of
the darker ones
.
black is the shade
my shade
at the end of the tunnel
forgot to refill those bottles again
they're cursed
because they hold nothing for me.
.
empty like the head
of those who write this account
or hidden by children
whilest we doze peacefully there
.
the time has come
to chose another way
stop being the reason they stay away
the bad example
.
what was once stiffled
confused by life
is taking back
our place amongst the living

There you go again. Reminding me what an illiterate hack I am.
"what was once stiffled

Great ideas all over this. Especially these lines, about the refusal to be a zombie in a haze.
I love the "we" and "us and "our", as opposed to the singular personal pronoun.
Yep, you did good, Blancodeviosa! Go eat a virgin!
cat- thank you very much. your so kind :)
paul- light will always move in and out of the picture as long as there is a new day dawning..
