I want to bloom with the flowers
Or flow with the air
Get lost in time for hours
And live with no care

I want to burn with the sun
And shine like the moon
Live with beings as one
And maybe
Just maybe you’ll come back too

But flowers don’t bloom
Not in this weather that I’m under
And you seem to have gotten lost with another

I don’t feel the air flowing through my lungs
I feel the hatred I’ve inhaled
Hatred you spout in your lying tongue
But you could care less if my breathing is ailed
Your...

You know that feeling when your crying
And your face is red and hot
When showering is dreadful
But bathing in your sorrows is not.

When getting up is hard
But staying in bed is comfort
When you try to sleep at night
But insomnia won first

When you don’t brush your teeth
When living takes effort
And just thinking about cleaning your room makes your fucking head hurt

When you can’t feel anything
But you feel everything at once
When isolation is pleasure
And your used to putting fronts

When you...

Today wasn’t good
Not even close at all
I lay on my bed
And stare at the wall

I replay your yelling
Saying how much I’m failing
You say it’s just scolding
Your feelings unfolding

I wish you would let me explain
Explain the pain
You aim to shame

I don’t brush my hair
Showering is hard
Getting out of bed is even worse
But you say I’m unscarred

I try to express
My mental distress
You say it’s absurd
My voice never worthy of being heard

And as I close my eyes
Then...

You told me your secrets
And I told you mine
We trusted each other
But your secrets were lies

My fountain of innocence
Your interest in me
You drank from my fountain
I begged you to leave

You stood at the limelight
And gathered a crowd
You opened your mouth
My secrets were loud
