Good Morning
Flippant air
from my sickened chest
crosses glistening stares
and holds glares arrested
I'm not debonair
or worth investment
or prepared
to take breath mints
I embody one ensnared,
I am scared and restless
I'm unfair
and reckless
I overshare,
I've cut all care,
these are not confessions
These words
are the truth speaking,
a heart leaking
Phrases painted by visions of future bleak,
a soul streaking
Borders weakening,
this is me pleading
to demons
I'm in debt with
This is an angel, feckless
This is disrespect
here to give hell it's inspection
Taste tester of bile,
I am beguiled vile of all that's worth while
being tainted and messed with
I am introspective,
my own smile rejected
in dirty mirrors,
self hatred clear
I am one trick phony
phasing myself out of existence
hardly holding a pittance
and sadder than most,
I am soon to be ghost
Down right rotten,
deserving
Life or death, I need decide where my nerve be,
I can no longer duck neath limbo
from my sickened chest
crosses glistening stares
and holds glares arrested
I'm not debonair
or worth investment
or prepared
to take breath mints
I embody one ensnared,
I am scared and restless
I'm unfair
and reckless
I overshare,
I've cut all care,
these are not confessions
These words
are the truth speaking,
a heart leaking
Phrases painted by visions of future bleak,
a soul streaking
Borders weakening,
this is me pleading
to demons
I'm in debt with
This is an angel, feckless
This is disrespect
here to give hell it's inspection
Taste tester of bile,
I am beguiled vile of all that's worth while
being tainted and messed with
I am introspective,
my own smile rejected
in dirty mirrors,
self hatred clear
I am one trick phony
phasing myself out of existence
hardly holding a pittance
and sadder than most,
I am soon to be ghost
Down right rotten,
deserving
Life or death, I need decide where my nerve be,
I can no longer duck neath limbo
