I was never really shy, I / was just quiet / brought up and caught up

His Song
My guardian angel takes the wheel when a sad song / shuffles from my iPod to my car stereo speakers / then fills the space inside until I am paralyzed

Grip
I’ve been spending too much time alone / My thoughts like vapor mystify and gently / float into my eyes

I’ve learned to be dishonest / so you will never know / how sad that I can get

Heartstrings Unraveled
I watched your happiness shining / A great light, resting / in the palm of your hands

You'll Never
What I envy most is that you’ll never wake with this kind of suffocating sadness that feels like it eats away at something behind your ribcage. Not quite your heart because in this type of sadness it retreats to its place of repair. Maybe your lungs, for breathing feels **** near impossible. You’ll never wake with your chest so heavy. You’ll never wake with a fist punched into your stomach twisting you nauseous. You’ll never wake with paralyzed limbs that prevent you from moving. You’ll never wake wishing you never woke. But because of this, you’ll never wake next to the love of your life. You’ll never wake up to know love. And I don’t envy you at all.

Flicker
Through days spent hollow / With quiet words to swallow / This is what I’ve come to learn

Dearest Heartbreaker,
Dearest Heartbreaker, / Wounded lies / Missed moments

Forever Unhappy.
Forever unhappy. / These words echo throughout my mind searching for a landing spot / as if my mind was made up of cliffs, instead of a straight cave.
