For you I trust - my morals put to the test
I cry - for this put to rest
And maintain that rain falls to change the pattern
I surrender - my heart, lungs, kidneys
Swallow you whole and let you wash right through me
I can't remember - how the sun tastes
Or my fingers through your hair
I pace lonely corridors in my dreams - you are not there
Submerge myself in this blood just to keep these words flowing
And self-medicate - to keep you from knowing
Because you can't know.

I love the way you've weaved these words together, but I am fearful because of the mention of self-medication. It can never end well. Take that from more experience that one could imagine. You are in my prayers.
Well yes, poetry can be better than life itself.
