All my life, I was afraid
Of that cold, sweet object
Freezing my teeth with a mere touch
Damaging them
It came with a variety of forms
From small spheres to large cubes
Packaged inside tiny cups and giant tubs
I couldn't imagine why people would enjoy sinking their teeth into one
And lick their lips in satisfaction
Someone shoved me out of the door
I wanted to shout at that person
But all words were stuck in my throat as I look what was in front of me
A giant mascot on top of a white truck
Its head was swirly, like a spiral staircase
The tip was sharp
Its body brown in color
Holding its big head into place
Its eyes, staring into my soul
Its mouth, elated to see me
Its form, which was my biggest fear
...Ice cream
I screamed

Go back to the laughter
Back to the jokes
You were meant to be like that
What's with that frown of yours
You're not supposed to do that
Only we have the exclusive right to be sad when you aren't comedic enough
Look at this person
All ranting and raving
Whining about the little things in life
You are supposed to entertain us
Not cry and ask for your audience for help
Instead, let us take photos and videos
Let us share and laugh at your efforts
That's fine, isn't it?
It's your job to make jokes, and we're having fun because of it
Media, news, speeches everywhere
Popular in every way imaginable
Isn't this the fame you wanted?
Isn't this the attention you craved?
But look at you now
All balled up with no emotions
How are you going to make us laugh like this?
This isn't right
You're not right
We are
You bore us
You have no value now
You have failed us
You have failed you
The current you is worse
The past you was better
We don't like you now, you're a bore
Now move along
Pack your bags as we move on
Maybe stepping and kicking you as you walk
As we begin our search for a better person that can properly do their job

Beaten by my parents
And ridiculed in school
What I have become: a useless fool
They think I'm inferior
They think I don't belong
Well I think they just might not be wrong

Hello there, stranger
Could I give you a hand?
You don't know where that is?
Let me show you then!
I gave you directions
You left with the advice I had lent
We exchanged numbers
I had made a friend
Oh, my friend
We hung out together
Met in your house
Talked all day when times got rough
Oh, my friend
You are everything I wanted to be
Inspiring, cheerful and brave
But everything changed when you caved
We were telling our secrets and lies
We were laughing at one another
We thought about our future
Everything, together
Oh, my friend
I never knew
I never knew that you were breaking
Deep inside where you were shaking
The life you had been faking
I never knew
Oh, my friend
I thought I was the one to depend on
The friendship we had our hands on
It's wasn't the truth for you
You were trying to befriend me
Building blocks to set you free
Oh, my friend
You tried to escape from your prison
Broke free of your shackles
But it was too late
The guards surrounded you
And there, you met your end
Oh, my friend

Am I out of my head?
Am I out of my mind?
Am I out of mercy?
Am I out of time?
I was born in a dark alley
I lived with fear
So many voices
Screams and shouts I hear
I ran away
Away from the noise
I was left alone
Playing with broken toys
It was scary
Living in these streets
Living through hell
Eating dirt for meat
But somehow, I survived
Suffering in pain
I went to the prison as they had instructed
And there was where I've been slain
There, the shadows loomed over and said:
"You are fine."
"Stop worrying so much."
"Get a life."
I put on my mask and told them yes
I was fine, I had stopped worrying
Reality was in my insanity
I made sure I looked presentable
No one wouldn't judge
I wore varying expressions
To keep it up
But lashes and frauds
Broke down this fragile glass of mine
I asked: Why me?
But the answer, I could not find
I locked myself in my cage
Released all my emotions
Insanity was in my reality
I scream and curse
Laugh and cry
The demon was unleashed
My end is nigh
I am out of my head
I am out of my mind
I am out of mercy
I am out of time

Tick tock
Utensils in stock
Tick tock
Time to go
Back and fro
Tick tock
Nobody home
Time to roam
Tick tock
TIme is ticking
I am seeking
Tick tock
Found what I'm looking for
Metal meets flesh, show me more
Tick tock
Red paint on me
What a tragedy
Tick tock
Shower time
To wash what is mine
Tick tock
Parents back
Ready to slack
Tick tock
It's night
Tomorrow, a new fight

In this neverending sky
You can not die
I will be here
To get rid of your fear
To help you move on
From the things you've done wrong
You will not die
Because I will try
To fix problems that aren't mine
You shall not die
As I live for another day
You shall too, breathing where you lay
I will give you a new name
Let us play this twisted game
You must not die
Else, I will be alone
Who would accompany me when I'm on my own?
Please don't die
I can't live on without you
I wouldn't know what to do
When you are gone
I can't hear your song
Of happiness and joy
I will die
If that means you live
That you could move forward and believe
I will gladly do it in your place
So please don't die under my watchful gaze
As a friend, as a lover
As someone who did things together
But right in front of me
I saw something I shouldn't possibly have seen
A figure, cloaked in black
Holding a scythe, bringing you back
You have died
And so did I

I was ablaze
Burning brightly in the infinite night sky
Fire is my blood
Lava forms my skin
I felt more refreshed than I had ever been
Water does nothing to me
So does any ice
So why oh why does my heart freeze when I see
This being before me
Such beauty, such grace
Doing things I wouldn't fathom they would dare to
I am terror
I am rage
Yet this being grabs me and cools me down
I bring disaster wherever I go
Tsunamis, earthquakes,
Forced events by my hand
But why does it not matter when they're here with me
Wrapped in their cocoon
All nice and warm
Unlike my burning self
Nothing pleases me
But they are pleased by everything I do
No matter what I try, they accept it all
Keeping deep inside them
Clinging
Enveloping
Loving
Ah, is this what it is?
This word, that was once a nuisance to me
It means the world to me now
They exist because I exist
They live for me
They want me
I am anger
I am pain
I
Can
Love
