22/M/MN Life is a perfect balance of two concepts happening simultaneously. 50% good, 50% bad. Your mood is which side of the balance you see.
Everyday I tell myself I'm not sad, I'm just tired. I'm not depressed, I just need nicotine. I don't need anyone else, I'm better off alone. But when it comes time for me to fix these issues, I **** it up. I'm not scared of dying, I'm scared of living. I'm not scared of trying, I'm scared of not being enough. My heart burns for better, But how can I have better if I keep myself at the bottom?

I often think of you, the one that got away. The nights staying up until 4am I regret nothing. I wish you would let me stay I thought to you my humor would mean something But alas. It is you after all, Mark zuckerburg.

Poison. Poison is all that's on my mind. I could go out in edgy flair By the point of a dagger Or, I could disappear by poison. Free myself from this cage with cyanide A sleepy, seamless death. No marks No pain Just true freedom. No more drugs pumping through my body to stall while death is lurking Maybe then I could finally be released of the pain I hold in my chest The pain of a thousand wishes and hopes orphaned Crushed I'll never be worthwhile. I know that. May this last vision To some so vile Be carried out for once in my life.

Worthless
We don't talk about that. What's done is done.

Silence
I had a dream A vision of brilliance, A beautiful scene After all you put me through I've learned to see That my story isn't anywhere close To what it had seemed Instead, I'm content To live on my own Not you, or you, or you on my team Just I Alone Living the dream

For you (lost lovers)
In a prison She is locked up The walls are lined with I told you so's And regret The air smells of a warmth and brightness 130 miles away If she could get out, But she is stuck. The wind whispers her name Longing to reach her, To caress her, To lightly kiss her skin with wind carried rays of sun. Some enter on occasion, But the rest are a longing. How the wind longs for her How she hopes to feel the wind Someday, She will be out And the wind will rejoice.

Behind lock and key
Like a lion, she stands fiercely beautiful. Her mane of hair like rays of sun. She guards the woods-- I long to enter them. Something mysterious draws me in. Maybe it's the birds with their glistening red and black hoods. I want to tame the lion, its eyes like deep oceans, full of emotion. I give it my whole heart and respect, And finally, I am with the birds, flying
