How will you know when it's finally over?
Who will you be when you no longer exist?
What will you do with eternal freedom?
When will you begin to accept the present moment?
Where will you be when you wake up dead?
What exactly am I trying to hide from myself?
Why can't I feel good without chemical help?
What is so terrible about being sober?
Trading it all, is it finally over?
Why do we love?
Sometimes it feels like it’s pointless
Love to be hurt
Then why do we start?
We start to feel it
That same joyous feeling
I don't even know
what I have left
anymore.
Not my family,
Not my friends
(who I don't want
to talk to),
Not trust,
or love,
or compassion,
or understanding,
Best friends you said
looked me deep into my eyes
straight into my soul i thought
best friends you said
over your shoulder
casually, easily
best friends you said
my shadow is made of paper;
and my smile's made of sin.
i can't get any closer.
to being dead within
If I could ask for one more dayThat I could be yoursI’d bask in moments, the love, the security.the purity in our intentionsBefore we refused to speak what was unintentionally mentionedThe lies you’d cry
You can't tell me that you ever cared about me or my feelings when the one time I sleepily told you I loved you (on accident), you told me that I didn't
It started with a light
a single life.
the light under the door
coming through the cracks in the windows
cracks under the lids
of my eyes
waking slowly
in your arms.
Cutting you out of my life would be like ripping out a piece of my heart...
But that part has been so beaten and abused that the rest has learned to beat without it already
Love
Unconditional, unstoppable
Truthfully, passionately, wholeheartedly
Yearning, destiny, coincidence, pain
Leaving, forgetting, replacing
Can you belive it?
It's almost over.
HIgh school as we know it will just be a memory,
A memory that will last us a lifetime.
Friends. Clubs. Teachers. Classes.
All just a memory.
I'm starting to feel like hearts are anchors
and mine is rushing to the ground.
Only I don't want to stay here,
stranded under the beating sun.
So tell me how to jump
You've gotten fingerprints,
All over my favorite movies and songs
I remember thinking,
that your blue
deep dark blue eyes
... Could solve anything
Cure
anything
and that your smile...
your pearly white smile
could fix my sadness,
When I think of you
sometimes my stomach flips.
Not alwyas in that "good way"
well,
Most of the time is alwyas the good way.
but
I shouldn't feel like this.
This...
This is settling.
Sitting here with you
Staring at this static fuzz on the TV screen,
Listless, blank, and melancholy.
We gave up so long ago,
it is his moment i realise
the true instabilliey of my inner subconcious.
withdrawn from simple communication
unable t contact anyone
iscolated from the world
washes of the thick coat of destractions
Lonely face while he walks the streetWater from my eyes like sea salt-laden galesThe last they heard from him was a tweetAll she wanted was to hear a taleThe Moon was bright as a lamp-post
Seven, it was seven years when we first met
Your hair so perfect & eyes so blue,
The way you played the trumpet
With that sweet smile oh so true,
This leaves a sour taste in my mouth, causes my eyes to welt, and plummets my stomach into a free-fall. I tried everything I could but it wasn’t enough.
stop crying. stop crying.
that's a lesson you learn from dying.
it's nothing, it's okay.
i'm just gradually going insane.
but it's alright.
I'll cross my t's and dot my i's
and everything will be fine.
I saw your Picture I Smiled.
I heard your Voice I Smiled.
I felt your Touch and, I Smiled.
I was Pained when there was no Thought.
I was Pained when there was no Emotion.
I was Pained when there was no Contact.
One more bruise,
One more curse,
One more day to endure the hurt,
One more insult,
One more look,
One more thought that it is all done,
One more slap,
One more tear,
There he goes walking at his graceful pace,
says hello to his friends, decides to stay and talk.
Smiling and laughing there is is, but then his eyes land on me.
His smile has faded away, and my heart is beginning to cry,
Hey comes fast,
But bye come faster,
Over comes last,
But under comes after,
From set up to set hut,
In from the monotone cadence,
From plastic and head buts,
Out roar of excruciating patience,
SOME MAY NEVER KNOW
LOVE MAY NEVER SHOW
INTEREST COME AND GO
GUILT IS ALL SHE'LL THROW
HURT MAY CAUSE A SHOW
TILL ONE IS DAMAGED ENOUGH & GOES
