Cruising
Ovid Oct 2016
I'm broke and wondering where all my money went.
Questioning what was the last thing I bought and if it was money well spent.  
I had to work for what some of my friends already had for years.
Kind of a ****** reality but then again, who cares?

I'm watching all of my heroes become human.  
Free balling life while trying to take the next step, yeah, I'm cruising.
Working hard for what many had all along.  
If you think there's someone answering your prayers then you're all wrong.

Opportunity and equity are two very different things.
We all can grow but where we go can affect whether we're winning or losing.  
I'm so consumed by my desires sometimes it burns me.
Taking the next step is hard but we're all forever learning.

My life is just one big broken machine.
I need tools and parts to fix it and I'm still searching.
All that time I spent waiting and wishing for some to rescue me.  
The only person who can answer my prayers is me.

What I must live without
Ovid Sep 2016
All of these broken things,
I will lay out.
I'll throw them all away,
And I'll learn to accept what I must live without.  
I can say life isn't fair,  
But I can't have what isn't there.  
I can pray for better,
But no one besides me is going to hear.

Some days I want to break all I have,
So I can possess what I am.
I want nothing to have any use just like me.  
Everything around me is complete unlike me.
I'm either feeling high or can't feel anything physically and emotionally.
But what's the ******* point of beating myself up when I know I'll soon feel nothing?

I'll live a lifetime in my cave-mind waiting for someone to see me out,
But until then I'll recognize what I can't have and what I must live without.
Ovid Sep 2016
I'm pretty sure it's safe to say you're not feeling me,
I had a hunch that'd you end up feeling that way.

I was honest and I was going to try my best
But you're an individual that chose to go another road.
You're gone on the highway and I'm walking on a rail road.  

I swear my friends keep me holding on
But they don't know that I'm so far gone.
I'd hope you'd give me chance and realize you had me all wrong.
Keep going because you were right all along.

I'm a child that still hasn't hit his growth spurt.
I swear I'm a psychic because I knew I'd be left hurt.
We were going to have a good run but you left me in the dirt.
I'm a train wreck trying to get back on track
And you'd chugged along and showed me your back.

What did I expect because it all ends the same,
And guess what?
Yes, I'm the one to blame.
I was hoping you'd see me out but you were smart enough to see through me.
I decided to write something in my old style.

That Winter...
Ovid Sep 2016
I'm looking forward to ******* nothing
The words I need to say are buffering
Somewhere down this line there is some sort of reward
I'm aimlessly trying to move forward
Get away from me, don't you see that I don't speak unless there's meaning
As far as I'm concerned everyone outside  of family is temporary
As of late, I feel restrained, being held back from everything that matters to me
So consumed by what I think I need,
I don't have the ******* luxury of choosing to be happy
Every road block I crash into takes a peice of me in some way

I'll never forget that winter where I was scarred and permanently changed
Frozen in time taking everything in
So much self reflection took place that it made every mirror I stared into bend
All that I felt and thought, you could never relate
I promise that you would die if you had to bare my weight
And I don’t need help from you or anyone to get me through this

Invisible
Ovid Jul 2016
Here I go again believing I'm not a broken man
My voice falls on deaf ears
I want to hear what I haven't heard in 4 years
I want to abandon hope, because hope is what's leaving me hurt the most
Maybe to feel nothing and lonely is the life meant for me

I was foolish to think that I could be anything but alone
Getting lifted up only to be put down
Believing I could get lured by someone else to happiness is a belief only justified by faith
And though I want to seclude myself and be invisible at my own will
The will of the world says I shall remain the way I am now;
Screaming and shouting to be seen and heard
But ultimately cast aside destined to be forgotten
Yet one has to be remembered in order to be forgotten.

Let Down
Ovid Jul 2016
I've been left out and cast aside
My shadow is all that's by my side
I'm waiting for my turn
To embrace
what is
deserved  
to all

So much luggage I carry from the past
I can't ask for help cause' nothing lasts
Let downs are always expected
The world has spoken,
I'm rejected

Promising to let you down is the only way I won't let you down
I'm beneath
the
soil
in the
ground!  

*******,
No one can come in
I'm not ready to go somewhere I've never been
That's why I won't pull anyone in
What I keep inside is deterring

I'll remain a stone unturned
Demanding what I'll never earn
Because I'm a peice work
A job that probably won't get done.

Priority
Ovid Jun 2016
I can't grow when every outcome is the same

I've been no one's priority
So why should anyone be for me?
Wasting time has wasted mine
How going with the flow has only gone smooth in my mind

Jagged rocks and clustered thoughts
Cold outcomes have always been my fault
Expecting torment is how I get ready for disappointment
My boys are all I need for companionship and enjoyment
Fairy tales are lies and I won't die searching for it

Stalemate
Ovid Jun 2016
In the prologue of relapse
I realized my last time was my last

Back when more things weren't right
I'd escape in the night
And put myself somewhere in the clouds
Emptiness embraced me
Nothing has changed lately
Dead leaves were covered in white and brought greener trees

Back? Oh God I'm not going back
Now... I know where I want to be but just don't know how
Alone. Just accept I'll die forever being on my own

Rolling
Ovid Jun 2016
Again I'm back here
I thought I could ignore my fears
A constant reminder that I'm not quite cut out for this
I deserve to be loved the way so many others have
Is what's so out of reach for me a goal or illusion?

Falling into the pool that is my thoughts
Drifting effortlessly as my youth rots
The fear that one day I'll be old with nothing or anyone to show
There is so much love in me to give that seems it will forever be cradled in morrow

I think that if I wasn't eternally flashed with fantasy I wouldn't long to share the best of me
I'm imprisoned by what is in my mind
Am I meant to observe and be taunted by the sound of companionship as if I am blind?
I'm not one to be weak but I silently scream in joy at the thought of being saved
Because when time comes that I finally save myself it will have already been too late

You're Such a Sucker
Ovid Apr 2016
You're drawn to trouble and it's killing you yet again
There you are drowning in the puddle you thought you could swim in
You can't make an ocean out of a lake by splashing water
And when it comes to ******* I swear you're such a sucker
Just like how I'm a fool for happily ever after

5:10am
Ovid Apr 2016
Turn the lights off, I have a really long day tomorrow
I found a little time tonight to think myself into sorrow
Let me set my alarm for 5:10am
Put the charger in my phone so it can get to 100 percent
No one texted me how I was, but does it matter? I'd just say I'm decent
As always...
The room is pitch black except for little lights of electronics
I need to get some rest so let me get on it
I close my eyes hoping my reality isn't real
Eyes getting teary but I know I can deal
Jolts and twitches are my reaction to thoughts that haunt me
Next thing I know my face is damp
I try to fall asleep but the same thing happens again
I wake up the next morning drained and ashamed
But I guess in some way everyone starts their day feeling *empty

Looking in from the Outside
Ovid Apr 2016
Looking in between the bars of my prison cell
I witness everything from hate, lust, and love
I will crawl back inside my shell if I should choose to leave this hell

I never thought that anyone could still see the best in me even after many words exchanged.
There is laughter replacing silence which doesn't make me seem any less deranged,  
And I never thought I could let someone in without making a change.  
But I always knew no one would stay.
And it hurts to be right.

Looking in from the outside,
I still don't ask questions why.
I'm paying for a horrible sin I'm not aware that I committed.
All I can remember is being cold,
And if I wasn't cold my heart would be trembling.
If there was anyone who truly wanted to save me
I wouldn't let myself spill my insides out...

Everything Fades
Ovid Apr 2016
Though I can't prove an idea that isn't so uncanny,
Being the fact I can control my insanity.
I don't want to be needy but some one to talk sure is handy.  
My friends tell me the same thing my brain tells myself;
That "It's  not your fault you couldn't hold on to her".
Desperation for something and getting nothing leaves me believing I'll be alone forever,
That late winter day when I swore things couldn't have been better,
I was left out to dry and was treated as a stranger.
Now I watch from the outside longing for an answer.
Checking in on each other indirectly a far is honestly ripping me apart.
Just let go I'm not holding on to the past.  
I'm just holding on to the question "why can't anything with anyone last".
Everything blurs and everything fades,
It may not for you, but it always does for me.
If I'm a fool, and if I can live quietly, maybe something or someone will come to set me free.

Sinking
Ovid Mar 2016
I* must wake up for all of those sleeping
I can't be normal with all that I'm thinking
I close my eyes and open them, instantly feeling empty
It's hard to rise to the occasion when I'm constantly sinking
Every milestone tumbles down as I drag myself endlessly
I'll watch the world grow as *I
implode
Smile after smile while still being hollow
Keep my mouth closed so I can't make a fool of myself
I'll stay alone so I won't be a burden to someone else
And it's been years since a soul offered a helping hand
But I'll fight for what I want instead going deeper in sand
So when Autumn falls I'll be a more whole man.
Feb 2016 · 305
Persist
Ovid Feb 2016
Your company is daunting
That stare is unsettling
It's obvious you don't know what uselessness is
You're infinitely wanted while I'm never needed
Love isn't for the hopeless
Hate me for being conceded
I'm just being what you've been all along
And the difference is no one will come to me while I'm lost in myself
I have to search and get shot down while looking for someone else
I'm waiting to get a new head
But I know the way I act and think are the same
I mean every word I say
Though you can't look me in the eyes
I can't change even if I tried
Jan 2016 · 288
Wither
Ovid Jan 2016
It's been a while so I'll let nicotine spin my head
Turned the heat off because I like it cool around my blanket
And I'll pretend every word we shared was  unsaid
At least I tried but as for now I'll force myself to forget
Staring myself in the mirror wondering is this reality
Flashbacks to how it was make me grit my teeth
I'll brush them and go about and find another reason to be cheesing
But I guess I'll imagine a world with myself which you will never see
Then I'll reflect how no one has ever been there
I have my boys so it will balance out so I believe that what's missing is fair
For now I'll puff some more out because I couldn't regret or care!
Not sure if this is finished

My Words
Ovid Jan 2016
I'm lost in search of comfort
I'm tired of looking and being tense
Can someone put in effort?
All this longing doesn't make much sense

All I want is relinquished fear
My cries are on the inside
How could I ever expect anyone to hear?
My wounds and words coincide

And I would never want to burden you with my words
So walk away and stay never
My thoughts are the worst instructions I've ever heard
Just take the high road and avoid this deep river

White sky
Ovid Jan 2016
Sound the trumpets for my time has come
The wishes of every breakdown I've ever had are coming true
My questions however are answered as I sink into exile
All along, I knew why things weren't my way
I must wave my hand at the sun because warmth shall be a memory
My suffering will not be of fire, but what I felt all along
Freezing in loneliness
Every soul I've ever crossed paths with will forget me
And the creator will too forget me, as I  wander in torment, freezing, and watching my flesh turn blue
I beckoned the sky to rid me of my timidness when I was a pest to the earth
Now that I've been cleansed,
I cry to the sky to plunge me into fire, so that screams will replace my cries
Jan 2016 · 438
The Serpent
Ovid Jan 2016
Into the ocean where my reflection is skewed
In the deep where my lungs can't be used
I'll float lifeless for ages while I see everyone breathe
My longing for answers now has me grit my teeth

Sadness is replaced by hate
And hate is more destructive than love
Love will make you hold on
Hate will make you grasp their heads and slit their throats

The time I spent underwater
No one even came under or cared
There is now an omen umong us
A serpent whose goal is despair
This creature wants its revenge
Loneliness left him a bitter taste in the air
How can one hold their composure starving while the masses binge?

This outrage will soon turn back to sadness
And I'll return to the ocean...
...Where I was always meant to be
I'll lose all sense of life with my eyes still open

Start Over
Ovid Nov 2015
Here I am again in my smoke ridden den
Lost in my thoughts but no where to be found inside your head
Every word unsaid was probably for the best
I'll have to start over with an emptiness in my chest
I wish I was worth something so I could use my confidence
My efforts to be better are masked by the loathing of insignificance and irrelevance
I'll sleep with hate for myself and everything in the world
I can't tell a soul how I truly am because no would want to ask again
And I'll be here the same as I was last year and the ones before
No direction but to just go forward
There's a cliff to my left where I can sink lower
The light to my right is where I can drop all and start over
What I want isn't what the world needs
I tell myself to waste everyone else's oxygen and breathe
It's best to stay quiet because I want no one to know what's underneath
My day will come when I come around...

Only Ocean
Ovid Nov 2015
The cold is the only warmth I've  known
The heat only comes from within and all there is to come
The only rise I have is when the waves lift me to my apex
My only apex
The trough is where I've been and belong
To be drowning for so long some thirst has to be quenched
The relentless reality of a drifter is forever lost
Sorrow only grows and is never relinquished
Misfit into an ocean of hungry sharks
Drown or be bitten apart

Comedy
Ovid Oct 2015
Everything I've ever done is to get pass fear and is driven by self hate
When opportunity comes I suspect it's bait
If I bite I might get hooked and lowered into a darker fate
No road is paved but I wish I knew my way
Is there something more?
Alone I've never been one to explore
I just like to lock myself where I know I'm safe
If I throw myself into the cold of the world I shiver and shake...
Will it ever be warm?
Smoke so much I sleep on the floor...
I'm in too deep a puddle to cast myself into a lake
I know I'll feel better if I can be someone who's not me because at least I'll have a chance to die in a comedy...

Cresent
Ovid Sep 2015
It's been years and I thought I was fine
What wasn't for me came easy
I didn't need a sign
Leave in the night with no regard
I was right not to take it an extra yard
Numb and oblivious I've been
Living with thought and no serious sins
I look at my screen and see your delirious grins
So far away and no intent to explain loose ends
In the night I saw your face
You walked by me with no change in pace
In a dream I was haunted by hopeless elegie
Waking up with empty hope and returning greif
The look of your cresent lips and teeth
Left me uneasy
I just want the past to stay out my mind and behind me
No regret and much remorse with a ****** up head, heartfelt hate, and memories
Sep 2015 · 346
Owed To Me
Ovid Sep 2015
Put me in your closet tucked away on your top shelf
Try to see through me but I'm opaque with stealth
I can't be the only person I know to question my worth
Me breathing is my only difference from dirt
Is my purpose to waste resources on mother earth?
Whenever I hear someone weep with words I scream
I'll tell them reevaluate and live for their dreams (live for their dreams)
I could say what the tools say
And be the opposite of me
Change my morals and actions and be driven by greed
I could probably have experienced more than just what I need (just what I need)
In my hole nothing ever feels like enough
Everything is broken in a world lacking with a delusion of love
Wheres my content like the people with no passion or know what they're of?
Satisfied but I lied so I'll be left be
Being mocked by peers for what they got for free
I can pout but nothing is owed to me
Owed to me
Jul 2015 · 426
Why you're not special
Ovid Jul 2015
Binge on the idea of revenge against someone you'll never see again
You never gave them a reason to stay now they're far away
Now your only companion is the dark figure the sun puts behind you
Shake your fist to the sky because you want to die
Blame everything that's around because you're on your own
The nights will be as dark as your vision
You went along with the motion until you had no chance for redemption
But you'll never change
You'll wait for someone to be your bandage so you can rip them off and wonder why you feel abandoned

Demur
Ovid Jun 2015
The opportunity to feel will come back in time
Turn my head away from all that are unobtainable and sublime
Don't speak to me my energy will turn you away
Loneliness drives me insane but I'll be okay
Wasted time spent by smoke and stereos
Watch time fly while I'm restless with my woes

My friends see me as someone with potential
The way my worth drops are exponential
My insecurities hold me back
Being comfortable with my shortcomings is something I'll always lack
I'll wait an eternity before I let anyone in
Until I can offer everything I guess I'll have to wait then

The Storm
Ovid Jun 2015
A warm field thriving with colours of every kind stays alive with rain and sunshine
The arrival of clouds is a sign of nourishment
The clouds linger and they stay causing the land to drown and decay
The colours of grass, oaks, and elms that once painted the land flourished and then blackened to dust
A mere storm becomes everlasting torment
The showers pelt the land while the  sun hides behind the grey eclipse
What was before is only a dream
The dampened souls in this storm have no escape
What they used to cherish are now desires that exist in memories
While sinking with all that is left they beckon the sky for their last breath

Stand Up
Ovid Apr 2015
The start of us being finished
We will rise for our pain
Lying on our backs will be anguished
The past will be a hellish dream

Your faith
Our hearts
What beats inside is stronger
Your prayers
Our actions
We will make change happen

The fallen must stand up so we can roam again
The souls that have always been at the bottom will get their chance to reign
Our blood runs thicker than the iron of your guns
The unrest will be rested once your down fall has begun
There will be no evidence of our oppressors
The world once owned, will be set free of the machine
A world of hate and greed will no more be seen
This is a promise
One day the world will be left in solace
They can't end us
We'll all go down in revolution
Just yell the words in your head as you read it c:

Will
Ovid Apr 2015
The moment when the ticking of a clock becomes your only company
The time you spend alone becomes torment instead of tranquility
The friends you love are let down by your loss of will
For a chance to be how you once were you'd ****
You're looking up to everyone you know
Now you're the cause of your own woe
You threw your faith in the water
You've been drowning for what seems like forever
Keep telling yourself you haven't hit rock bottom
You fell hard but you're not broken
It's never too late for change haha

Oh Karma
Ovid Mar 2015
I want clarity on why good times are suspicious to me
Every time I rise I fall with a smile as my disguise

Oh karma, remind me how I shouldn't smile
Make me see my existence as vile
I know happiness can't last forever
But I know I'm always meant to suffer
Oh karma, put me back in my place
Make this disgrace halt from poisoning the human race

When you realize you are part of the disease
You'll watch yourself hate the things you need
Swallow every meaningless bit of shame
Walk forever meaningless until you fall to Earth playing karma's game

Then I opened my eyes and saw I need to take control of my life
Relentlessly someday I'll push away the forces that make living a protracted decay
I have no idea where I was going with this and I'll probably hate it later

Mutual Adore
Ovid Jan 2015
I've been lost for so long accepting never being found
I've been floating alone just trying to stay high off myself
I thought I was never going to feel that again

I never thought I'd ever feel more
I never thought that I could experience mutual adore
For so long I only hoped to come in second place
To come in first just imagine the look I had on my face

Please let this last
May only death leave this in the past
The future is paved with uncertainty
I hope that road will be explored and conquered by you and me

I've been lost for so long accepting never being found
Walk this world with me that is round

Unlaced Shoe
Ovid Dec 2014
"I don't know" are your favourite words
Your mind is made up of paths you're not sure of
Your body language is always foreign

Why can't you just be someone who knows who they are?
Attention is all you ever wanted
Just look at the aching hands that write of your aching heart
Alone you feel because you don't surround yourself with those who've been with you since the start
Make ties with people instead of being a stubborn unlaced shoe
You're the only one accountable for what you do

Grow up and be an open book
Don't push away everyone just because they want to take a look
Just look at the aching hands that write of your aching heart
Inspired by Fall Out Boy's "My Heart Will be the B-side to my toungue" Ep

This Tree
Ovid Dec 2014
How am I?
I feel sheltered by a rotting pine that is about to fall
I can hear it creak as I gaze at its the growing cracks
When it falls on my back, the misery of pain will end my screams
For now, I sit waiting for my world to collapse
The woods where I reside, has yet to see the sun shine
As the sky weeps endlessly, behind the front, there is a frozen sunset
I look in awe at this realm that is mine
A place that I do not want to be, shall be ripped away by the weight I carry that shall be a fallen  **tree

Ensconce
Ovid Dec 2014
I've had my eyes on you
Don't ask how long
I just know you've got it all wrong
I can see in your eyes
You use your smile as a disguise
In every congratulatory gesture you make there's a cry for help
Yet you don't let anyone know your true self
Run away or learn from your past
Hide your demons with a laugh
Why let yourself long for breath when there's a hand to pull you out of your suffocating bath?
Trust is a knife you sharpen with every word
I promise this blade we hold will not dig into your back

If I Ruled the World
Ovid Dec 2014
If I ruled the world
Justice will make the wicked shake in the knees
If I ruled the world
Law will be obeyed

To every man who have  pillaged a woman
You will be enslaved
To anyone who has taken the innocence of a child
You will be slaughtered without trail

If I ruled the world
Safety will be a ensured
If I ruled the world
Your silent screams will be heard

When God isn't there Justice will be served
A hand will be there to help the weak
A soldier will be made of every theif
If I ruled the world
War will not be more important than those in need
There's no such thing as a perfect world...

Tercets of the Wretched 1
Ovid Nov 2014
Do you hear society crumbling?
Do you see the cowards fleeing?
Do you feel the burning?

The streets are filled with the screams of women and children
Hell is on Earth but you don't even realize it yet
The forgotten shall remember this day

You pray that God bless all you have
While the forgotten have nothing
They have lost all empathy

Your being is a mockery
May the forgotten have mercy
The desolation shall be all we see

Close your eyes
Dig your grave
The forgotten and I shall remember this day
Pretty brutal if I do say so myself lol

Friend I'll never misrecollect
I wish I never met you

Now that it's just us two
Now that the good times have come to an end
I just want to say thanks
For being a good friend

I know that I'm a mess
I know at most times, I'm not at my best

You were my best companion
Now you're on your way to being a champion
You left me at the bottom where I've always been
Where I'll always stay
Now when we see each other, we just say "hey"

I can't forget the ******* memories
Then and now seems like two different realities
I know I've asked a million favors
Just don't forget about *me

Autumn
Ovid Nov 2014
I'm in awe every moment
I admire her every word and movement
It's impossible for me to ignore her

I think about her every minute
I have to suppress the thought of her just to get things done
She is my fire in the sky when I can't see the sun

I'm just so hateful
I want to hate her
but I can't find a single reason

What will become of thoughts like this
I just want to grab her wrist and show her hands are meant to be held

How can a person be like a season?
Like the leaves in fall
I can make her face turn red
Autumn is only person that makes my anger and hate  *decimate
Autumn isn't even real, she's a generic(fictional) representation of everything perfect and every imperfection you can adore in a single human being.

Shades
Ovid Nov 2014
Stop
Was a word she was afraid to say
Every "how are you?" ends with "I'm ok"
Why doesn't she just run away
When he says he loves her he doesn't mean it

She walks with her shades on
For her eyes are of a burglar who has had their dignity stolen
People walk by oblivious to what's it like for her at "home"
She longs to be truly alone

She walks with her shades on
I wonder "do you hate making eye contact with people, do you?"
The weather is beautiful as her yet she always wears a sweater
She doesn't let anyone know her arms are violet

Why doesn't she run away?
Why can't he just die today
An angel's wings should never be led astray

If she could know the world outside of that cowards grasp
Maybe the world could still enjoy her laugh

When have we been?
Ovid Nov 2014
Without you I wouldn't be the same
You are the only thing that keeps me sane
We have our friends but
They come and go
Just like our time together, the lengths abate
The seasons change
It begins to snow  
The days get shorter
The dark moves in
When I can see you through my breath
You remind me I have something left
In a tundra of ice, you keep me warm
And I've always kept you out of every storm
I don't ever want this to end
Let the good times begin
The hype, the energy
The falls, the countless elegies
When I had no one or nothing at all
You've been there through it all
These years, the best I've had
I regret letting you slip my grip way back
But you're here now
I promise I won't get lost and found I had nothing, but you came made me feel proud
You've made me fall, and yell loud
I've become stronger because of you
I get better when it's just us two
You've been there for me in all of my worst falls
I wouldn't change the past at all
It's about my bike

There will never be another you
Eyes have been flooded with the eternal absence of your being
Your face is the only thing I want to be seeing
The voice of you have bounced off my walls
You have been there for comfort of my worst downfalls
You were there to make my screaming soul calm
Why do we only know what we have until it's gone?
What you have spoken told me how to feel
What you have spoken told me wounds will heal
You've shown me that we are alone Through you you've shown that by myself I'm whole
Because if I feel nothing for my enemies
Revenge should be what makes us happy when the demons have left us alone
The everlasting absence of you has left me numb
Why do we only know what we have until it's gone
You have made my sullen heart still beat in the sun
Why must we weep and morn because of your divine intervention
There is a God that hates me and you have shown me that's alright
Your words have gotten me through my seldom nights
Oh why do we beg for the summer when the days are short and cold
Our breath is all we see on those days of bitter frost
You are one of the last people we want lost
Why do we know what we have until it's gone?

The Pills
Ovid Nov 2014
Selfishness
He's let down all who try to help for those who were suppose to let him down
He stares at the pills
The pills mock him everytime he plans his demise
He wonders if his soul will become the sky's
The tomorrow he wishes for will never be
He watches the people around him look forward happily
Why can't that be me, he asks why can't that be me?
His reality is something he wishes could have been unseen
With his hands buried in his hair he realizes selfish is he
Hate for so much, angry at who he's suppose to love
Angry at the the pills that he knows could end it all
The mirror is tainted he thinks
Tainted with his presence
He believes he is not worthy of his reflection
Leach of the earth, leach of those he loves
Opens up to none, none that can solve his problems
He stares at the pills
The pills remind him once he is gone, gone is never again
Selfishness
Himself is all he believes
Love is irrelevant to his existence
He knows that the pills will give him no relief
Suicide, emo

Just know
Ovid Nov 2014
All ears I've been all this time
Talking from pm to the am by your side
How I really am I always hide
You never know how my day has been because you never asked
Don't you think it's hard for me sometimes as much as you to do simple tasks
You cry, moan and sulk screaming you're all alone
I'm not down with that insult so I'll put down the phone

When you pushed everyone away because you're scared of letting people be too close
Just know the loneliness is something you chose
Just know the solitude you're in isn't because of who you are but what you have done
Never letting anyone in will be your biggest regret
You can't sleep at night because  pillow is wet
Just know it's because you're scared of being hurt while you're always wounded

Autumn please wake up, your day awaits
You can't even open the curtains in your room because you're so ashamed of your face
Just know your looks will be a problem the real world will soon replace

When the mirror taunts when you don't have on artificial loveliness
Rememver Humans are like butterflies that can never see the beauty of their wings
Look down at your hands and arms that made your shadow your only company
Get out of the dark to come find me

An honor
Ovid Nov 2014
You are everything I've been waiting for
Angels sometimes need help to make their wings sore
An honor
It would be, to help you fly so you will realize your beauty
Every time I see your smiling face your eyes make me look down to my hands to see if this is reality
My chest, has always felt so weightless
When what I say makes you grin that's a blessing to the human race You are everything I've been looking for
I just pray that you don't realize that you can do far more better than I
If I ever become yours, remember  me when you ascend to the kingdom in the sky
It kills me, to speak to you and not make you laugh
Though I always have little to say, the withdrawal of not talking to you drive me insane
You are surely everything I've been looking for
Autumn is ugh
Ovid Nov 2014
When I was younger I've been on the receiving end
Always getting what others got for themselves
Now that I'm older I see myself giving in
I question why some people are kind to me
How could they when all I am is negative energy

I dreamed a world where I could wish on a shooting star
When I looked at the sky I wondered where the stars were
My demons held me down until I felt a pain that's sharp
I gasped for air woke up in the dark

I would rather live than be alive forever
Living for myself is my only desire
If Autumn ever comes around to change my mind
I know then I can happy and leave my past behind

Move like water around the rocks resting in a stream
Is how I live never overcoming anything
To move like birds in a forest that's so green
Is how I want to dwell before I am deceased

I dreamed I surpassed everyone's expectations by far
To imagine such a reality seemed too bizarre
Every time I want to move forward, all I can feel is the walls in the dark

Don't look back
Ovid Nov 2014
You have your friends
I have my dreams
I hope you follow yours while I'm in my nightmares sound asleep
Don't look back
Promise you'll forget all about me
Don't feel bad because in time I'll get over how you've made me happy
You deserve the world, that's impossible for me to give
You were my world and I need to find another galaxy

When the sun goes down
I'll still be awake
Drowning myself in my mind to accept and make sense of this agonizing heart ache
Don't look back

I'm glad we crossed paths
I'm glad you're flying away to do more than you ever could in this town in the east
When I cross your mind
Remember that I wouldn't have wanted things to go any other way

— The End —
