Feeling like my life isn't where it ought to be. Feeling like I've lost a piece of me, the essence of who I am & trying to get back to who I am.
Danger stalks far & wide Questions linger in the air Waiting at the curb to catch a rid… Staring at the car lights Ready to set off a flare
Dreaming in black & white Bracing for a fight Chasing shadows through the night Trying to avoid all light For fear of being hated
Are you a boy Or are you a girl? Are you human Or a mural? Can I manipulate you
The cold wind blows Enveloping my fears Standing at the precipice Between life & death Vapors transfigure
When you want to sleep But the sheep are gone Lying flat on your back Staring into black Playing with shadows
Running into the eye of a storm Breaking promises that I’ve sworn Wearing a lightening cloak Picking up psyches that I’ve brok… Grey skies
You gave me a promise I relied everything on you In time you let me down You distort my love for you Into a ravenous wolf, a clown
Liquid silver running through my v… A prism lies just beyond the guise Deceiving our feeble mortal eyes Few realize, few embrace The unknown—the unexplained
It’s souls midnight And I’m alone baying at the moon It’s a soulless kinda night Where the crazies & maniacs swoon Drowning in a flood of emotions
Painting skies In hazy eyes Writing lullabies Watching truth become a lie Hungry for a morsel of honesty
I listened but didn’t comprehend The meaning to my existence Is but an end To which there is no mean Gravitating towards starlight
Twenty five Afraid to live Afraid to tempt fate To want what others have– How sinful of me
Dripping like honey Off your tongue Everything’s funny When I’m in your arms Running
Sifting through pieces of me Left broken and forgotten Trying to find a piece of me I’ve… Looking for my spark Now dying embers
Grasping at pipe dreams Something good Is never what it seems Riding a wave of discontent The sting of doubt unrelenting
