There’s too much stress Why am I such a mess? I can’t figure myself out My head is full of doubt Is there something wrong with me? Have I been found guilty? I just want to sleep forever To this worry I want to surrender Clawing at me this creature
I have packed boxes in my dream
Packed stories, packed books
Packed conscience
I convince myself that I'm free
That I'm not living in a shadow between
her and him and you and me
The familiar scratching at the inner linings of your throat like a cat scratching at the walls, screaming to be let out. The sensation of your airways closing like that time when a man you did not know choked you for reasons you did not know.
I’m in pain, everyday
and I’m tired of your disbelief.
Tired of the “lies”
that you’re sure you see.
well I’m tired of everyday,
And I’m tired of being me.
just this once, can you listen?
Sweet sage. Tears. Hands clinched around another's as we sink, slipping below the original position.
The land shifts like dreams. Massive. Mother loves and cries of her blessings eternally.
Cycle Synechis.
welcome friend, it's dark down here.
for most, it's much too grim
the table's set with plates half empty
the cups spill o'er their rims
I'm sorry I closed off
show up
throw up
grow up
GET DOWN!
rise up
time's up
lift up
SLOW DOWN!
he's up
she's up
what's up?
GOING DOWN!
You ever walk down the street,
and find it empty?
The sidewalks barren,
with no one,
nothing in sight.
The lights are dim,
as if knowing
today is nothing special.
We just out here
Trying our hardest to stick out
By wearing weird clothes
All we Do is clown around and Love
We dont really stick out
Used up Vans and roughed up shirts
Since I was a little kid, I always had this feeling deep down inside
Dark deep emotion that kept me alive, as I even feared it
I’m so confused
I don’t know which path is right.
Should I stay mad or feel glad
I don’t understand my emotions.
There scrambled, and broken.
shake off this feeling
it's just a phase
but my heart takes a beating
when I catch your gaze
the time that he's stealing
my sould it does raze
but since I know your feelings
Curtains are drawn at night,
To shield our fragile minds
From obscurities
Mute outside.
Half are opaque,
Half are translucent.
Variety feeds the filters
Oh, the days are getting longer it seems.
This technology is getting smarter than me!
Now the sun seems much stronger than the breeze,
This heat will bring my closed mouth to speak.
Tell him he can’t
He’ll not listen
Hasn’t and won’t ever
Going off about something
Voicing that he has
Saying he will again
Trying to stop him
Running away
Victim
Used by many
Left by some
To all spares every penny
But has ears from none
Caught up in a journey
Though it's just begun
Perfection, Caught in a moment so complex that the average mind cannot comprehend such an unexpected necessity.
To lie in arms, embracing what is and doomed never to be.
I just broke down. Why?
For what reason am I breaking down?
Why does my pretty little face have this ugly frown?
Its's 12:35 am and so much is on m mind
So many emotions, feelings, or whatever kind
