I can see the haze

When you’re around

Head in the clouds

Without a sound

I lean on you for safety

And fall flat on my face

Is this the only way

I will ever feel safe

Isolated in self loathing?

Or just a wolf in sheep’s clothing

It’s loneliness that’s the killer of all

And it’s where I fall

I feel at peace without you

I can see without you

So is it the fear of being alone ?

I’m a knew person

Maintained by mistakes

My love for you

Is like an earthquake

Disturbing my concious

Making me neaseaus

But what can be

Apart from you but me


I can feel

The beating of your heart

Tearing me open

When it skips a beat

Is it for me?

What can’t I see

I bleed for you

Need for you

I can’t help but feed the truth

My open mouth

Hungry for desire

But all I am is a fucking liar

Moving slow

One inch at a ti...

Live Blind

1 min read

Love blind

To your touch

Where I go

But it’s never enough


The echos of your words

Linger like a blanket

To a band aid

To cover these wounds


How could I make you live ?


Justified goodbyes

Leave me like a shadow

In the night

The touch of your skin

Leaves more than what could have been

It’s like I’m in a coffin sinking

The shadow leaves me thinking

If I’m not enough

Than what does that make you...

Alone

Your eyes

Becoming me

All that I see

Drowning beneath

The waves

Of green

All that I am

Has it been found again


Sit down

To take the load off

Pressure

Pushing

From every side

Now we slide in and out

Of feelings


Stay still

Let go

Send me a message

So I can be sure

Of where we stand

Because without you

I will turn this whole world to sand


You’re like a spring

In the middle of the desert

Y...

Description Thing

1 min read

Her hazel eyes pierce the skin

“Is there anything left from the man that’s within?”

Her voice calms me

The somber wandering of her melancholy mind

It eases me to put my head back on the pillow

There’s no world for tomorrow

If you can’t remember the past today

I exclaim in excitement

She pushes back

Her soft skin brushes up against mine

Goosebumps form on my arm

I can’t get past this dopamine fas...

Roots

1 min read

Far above

The earth below

The leaves will blossom

And Some will grow

They let me live

For that I know

What it is

To be alone


Down below the roots run deep

In my skin

Your soul I’ll keep

Here and now

It’s where I’ll be

But a world without you

Is a world without me

I’ll learn to cope

To branch out and grow

But one things for certain

But that I’ll know

What’s done is done

Can’t take it back

I jus...

Noise

1 min read

Sitting in silence

Hoping for violence

I can’t seem to get enough

It’s in my bones

But it’s breaking up

In my system


I want to be okay in the silence

But it can’t stop screaming at me

The world around won’t stop assaulting me

Tune it out

Quiet the noise

I can’t seem to stop

This unhealthy joy

And break this habit

I’m mad like rabbits

What can I

Try to do

It’s not enough

Without you


Bring the ...

The Highlights

1 min read

Working to make a living

Leaving you in the past

Every time I leave this town

It’s like a breath of fresh air

The only downside is you

Living a movie

Where you aren’t a part of the highlight reel

Live vicariously theough me

May not be enough

I wish it want like this

I wish I could do better

I wish you could see the things I’ve seen

Experience the world as me

I wish I could see the world through ...

Star patterns taking the sky

Floating around above us

Everyone is different

Even the ones we hate

All cut from the same cloth

With different artists

One with hearts

Geometric shapes

Stripes

Dots

All the same

But vastly different

Love is like a wing

Of a butterfly

Everyone loves different

Like me

Not one is the same

Loving multiple people

Loving what you need to to survive

Love exaggerated

Love h...

I Dunno Man

1 min read

We woke up in a trance

Where were only in your head

And I’m left out

Everything is meaningless

When I’m filled with regret


Awoke to the sound of silence

Killing me slowly

The armored regret

Of dying alone

Wasting away

Taking pills to cope

Leave me out to mope

Uhhhh

The cursed monkey junky...
