I lay alone at night
My mind thinks only of you
I stare up at the cracks in my celing
Wishing for this to be through
It's hard to describe what I'm feeling
I guess you could say I'm lonely
I'm not quite sure what to call it
But what I'm feeling isn't phoney
I feel the distance between us
And it breaks my heart every time
I'm not trying to make a fuss
It's not like you committed a crime
I tell you that I love you
You tell me that I'm too kind
There's something that's long overdue
But it's something I can't seem to find
I suppose I'll always wonder
If you ever think of me
For fear of striking my heart with thunder
I think I'l
the sun light went out
when he broke my heart
it sat there before me
as the moon fell apart
in his pocket of beauty
yet nothing could dent my joy
loving him was my duty
such an unworthy boy
The second I step out of bed
I want to drown these thoughts
Fingers stumble frantically on the dresser
Till they close on salvation
Don't bother to untangle the headphones
Just put them on and turn it up
The baseline drowns the pounding
Screams cover the ones echoing in my head
My internal screams cry for the blade
"Just a few drags." They say,
But I'll fight to believe myself
When I say "Not today."
For once Ill admit I was wrong by effortlessness, literature
Literature
For once Ill admit I was wrong
You constantly save me from my troubles, even though I've always claimed
that I need no saviour to burst nightly bubbles. So my cheeks blushed quietly pink-ashamed
when you confessed how I spent several evenings screaming brain wrecked with cider, mind on standby.
(I guess my common sense was dreaming as I shouted at you and some passers-by.)
I never recalled my heresy in the morning, nor how you lip-bitingly stuck by my angry side,
so when you told me it finally started to dawn how much I need my unsung hero of the night.
If love was exchangable,
I would do so with your love
in a second without
h e s i t a t i o n .
Who would want such a
false sense of admiration,
with each
lying
word
you breathe into my ears.
But now I wonder,
can you love, do you have it
inside of you to do so?
Or maybe your heart
has shriveled and perished
into oblivion,
Never to be touched by
any soul again.
Perhaps it is isolation
you seek since you are
So high up
in your kingdom.
Then it shall be
s o l i t u d e
that befriends you
in this god forsaken world.
For I have given up
on this love
that perhaps never was
or ever happened.
