You say the shoes need filled
By someone greater than I
You think they are still too big
Just like your ego—I mean the figment
From which my imagination grew?
But what you fail to notice
Enough.
It's a word that describes something we can never have. It doesn't matter what it is.
It could be friends, clothes, beauty, happiness, money and more.
The apple rots when it very well pleases
The seed just does what it’s told
It grows and grows, the ground picks up the pieces
Of the apple tree’s selfish mold.
There’s no free will for the sapling
Above the grave
Below the sky
Always far behind happiness
In front of death
During your journey, something went terribly wrong
I can't be pretty.
I'll never be beautiful.
I'll never matter.
Take my hand and squeeze
As hard as you can so I
Won't feel my heart break.
It stares back at me
Every imperfection exaggerated
How can anyone see beyond
It's practically screaming to be noticed
Is it possible to remove this demon?
Do I have the strength?
