I try and try to hold, to no prevail as my labial frustration spews and echoes through halls with paper thin walls separating us from the stares, I don’t care... I DON’T CARE
When the world keeps rolling
and the days keep coming
and your routine stays the same,
but the challenges persist
and you're lacking courage
and you're only just starting the game,
I don't understand
Life goes by in a daze
So many thoughts, so many opinions, so much to live for
I feel like i should be someone else
But it's a lie
When I'm alone I feel happy
But it's a lie
As children we are told
Right and wrong are black and white
And the hard line between them is time and place
That green means good and red means
Stop
I try to hide the parts of me that's vulnerable,
If it's not exposed, then I won't be exposed,
Don't get me wrong, I do have a heart for you,
And I just don't want you to think my heart is cold;
You call yourself a family
but live so unhappily
mom smiles in people’s face but
when she’s home
puts people in their place
Dad stays quiet , don’t know what to say
depressed with the life he live
How am I truly supposed to feel?
Am I supposed to feel warmth every time I
say those three empty words?
Am I supposed to feel intoxicated every time I
say those three empty words?
Books
This one or that one
Never the same
But never different
Vampires or witches
It's a struggle
My body squirms every time my thumb hits the blue arrow
Reveal too much and I become a slave, she's the Jew's Pharoah
Conceal too much, she may turn away,
This is my conflict, my new peril.
Love is an emotion you cannot control,
You can’t and shan’t choose to feel it,
Development of yourself is replicated,
Unfortunately your weakness is emphasised.
Love makes exceptions to flaws,
Do you know?
I don't.
Someone has to.
Not me though!
I don't know.
Maybe you do,
Can you tell me?
I've been trying to understand,
But I haven't figured it out yet.
If you know,
