Bitterness
I wish I could I could see beyond your bitterness,
your undying depth of support, love, hate.
All of that.
To me, you're like a ring of emptiness.
What used to be there is now gone.
Maybe someday you'll understand that this is the time.
Why can't you set me free?
Let me fly away.
I just want to be free.
Can't you see that?
The Mask
During the day I wear my mask
Yet at night before I go to bed, I take it off and cry
Day-watchers! Do you know that I'm a fake?
A bitter explanation of a charlatan
An ugly excuse of a person
I wish I could show you my flesh but right now the mask serves me well.
I can do whatever I please and not worry about the consequences,
But are you sure that if I took off the mask, that you'd accept me?
Cry
There's nothing like wanting to cry,
wanting sickly, salty tears to dry on your stiff feet
curl up in aball and just let them run,
not caring who sees you.
Crying about the dumbest things,
writing lame poems about it
being sick to your stomach from crying,
heart hurting
love aching,
knowing forever that you're a part of this world that dies  everyday.
Sighing Softly
ever so often I sigh softly,
about how bad things have gotten,
About how I no longer love myself,
Sick of whispers in the hallways,
feelings being bashed
dreams being trashed
feeling utterly alone sometimes
waiting for something, not knowing what it is, just hoping it's there.
i've found a reason for me, to change who I used to be, a reason to start over new, and that reason is you.

at night I pray
that soon your face
will fade away
~bs
tidal waves they rip right through me,
tears from eyes worn cold and sad.
~blink 182
Am I fading into oblivion?
Do I even turn your head when you walk past?
I see the darkness on the horizon.
It's calling
Telling me to slip into its reaches.
Pulling, stretching, fading...
Will I come to you?
The sky is clothed in darkness.
I should be scared, but I'm not.
I stretch out my unfearing arms,
Save me from the person I'm becoming
Save me from me.
Cryptic
cryptic messages
sent through the eyes
pleading, plodding
pruding, singing?
grasping, taking
asking, demanding
Help me or leave me!
Just do one.
but i creep away
silently, slowly
keeping my eyes on the messenger
distance comes upon us
and you are down
still, calm , still
It is my fault
