I wish I were those leaves

Flowing freely in the air with no care

Laughing in the wind with pretty colors

Glowing from all around them

I wish I could fit in

But instead, I fall from the air

Wishing I weren’t there

And instead giving a care

A care into every little wind that blows my way

Even if it wasn’t meant to swift past me

I care too deeply others say

I feel too much every day

One word can rub against my soul

Threatening me with its hidden meanings

And I read in between the lines too closeley

Its a exhausting rope that tears too deeply

People say its better to feel pain than nothing

But it is pain that isnt even mine that chokes me

And I cant control the emotions that I posess

God I really am a melancholic mess
