You buy me flowers
You kiss me on my cheek
You take a shot of cough medicine
And leave it on the sink
Why can't they be death?
Determination in their voice
Aware of their choice
Their presence makes me a mess
When I told my friend that I liked a boy she was ecstatic. She gushed. She squealed. She urged me forward.
When I told my friend he asked me out she screamed. She laughed. She yelled. She asked me when we were going out.
Someone once told me
My life wasn’t worth living
That in the end I will be so lonely
Asking for help or begging my homies
Dancing away my stress
Singing my heart
Acting as if
There once was a man named Dave
Yet drastically different from Goliath unscathed.
In dissapointement he was submerged
But as fear drew nearer he found courage.
Within his headphones, music provided escape.
stone walls I build around me
though my smile falters none
it's as if my will is caving
and i wish that i could run
run from the problems
run from the promises
And here we leave, we leave you with your unhappy lives, your unhappy eyes, and your unhappy gossip.
And As I wonder how amazing my life will be, you will too. Only worry about me and not you.
Your words
Sharper than a knife
Thrown at my heart and I’m left bleeding inside
My whole life has been lived through your eyes
Nothing can ever be mine
Empty compliments
Perfection
You strive for it
You reach toward it
You momentarily grasp it
But then you fall,
Stumble yet again
And as the familiar taste of gravel in your mouth
