a sound soul dwells within / a sound mind / and a sound body
It starts deep within, Your abdomen, A twisting stab, Like your guts getting gripped. The feeling flows up and through you, A hollow burning leaving you in cold sweats, I feel a pang in my chest as it grips my heart, These phantom hands play with me and I can't catch my breath. I try to swallow but the fingers have pried off my aortic and pinch my vocals, My throats so tight, Like a chord clamps been pressed upon me. My voice won't come out, Only sound is in tune to F sharp, Meek I am Meek I feel Meek you see Now how many of you thought love and how many fear? Ask yourself either way, what's the difference? Perspective is everything and I plead to you, Understand both.

Something's Caught in my Throat
Cold..,so cold.. Snow falls in mid february You'd think like any other winter day but no.. It falls sharp it falls fast it hurts me a sting as if my skin is being cut into and making me simultaneously hot and cold making sure i don't know which or how to feel about it that's when i realize snow is not sweet and fluffy like the memories of your childhood pet laying against you under the summer sun or in a cozy home with the fire burning as she's tucked under her fleece blankets snow is nothing but ice sharp thick and dangerous like the chef knifes of infomercials that you'd watch because it's the adult thing to do That you'd buy because it was the adult thing to have days as these are when we realize reality is not your childhood memory Reality is the grinch whos heart was 2 sizes to small because the heart shrinks as the mind and body grow It is cooties turning into kisses Kisses into *** *** into broken hearts and tattered bodies Reality is school going from learning colors and 123s to trigonometry and stressing to the point of suicide Yet they yell words of compromise thinking you're no big deal Whether your words are littoral or figuratively speaking Yet don't they kinda go hand in hand Reality It is from your worse problems being if you had a nightmare at five to living a nightmare not that of monsters under your bed but of the monsters in and out of your head That make every step harder like they wanna build you up with lead And making every hour longer adding sand mans sand to your eyes instead of your hourglass Wishing you could just wipe the weary out of your vision because you aren't getting any more time Everyday working schooling caring to death Reality is like snow. It's a memory from your childhood thinking it'll be light and fluffy When it's really ice piercing your skin making you realizes that childhood memories stay that way for a reason

Scary mind is mine?
Are you ashamed? Of the lies that you told The hearts that you broke The dreams that you shattered Of the hopes that you told You and I were never the same Never were you the better half of me I watched it play Like a movie screen I was in the cinema watching this all time hit The one with your hand raised Such a good movie It brought tears to my eyes So sad and bittersweet The ending itself was harsh But then again when is life not Life is real and true But it is the saddest thing Life hurts and kills How can you even call it a life when you aren't living To live is as cruel as the thought of having a life to “live”

Situation: Bad Feelings
Today I saw you Right away A smile, spread across my face And still it hasn't gone away Who knew that a few moments with someone With anyone could make me so happy My chest it hurts My heart it's beating so fast Cant breathe Why? You took my breath away That's why The low sound of your voice Your sweet smell It all kills me inside I cant hide it from you anymore My world... Is what you have become

You know that feeling? That feeling where your heart hurts And you wonder how? How can this little 8 ounce ***** hurt? Its mind boggling. It kills me because i dont want this pain I dont want to hurt I want to feel nothing And why dose your heart hurt when your happy? Then it hurts even worse when youre sad Or you feel nothing at all I mean i was so happy today and just this pain... It just grew and grew till the point where i had to grab my chest and breathe The pain it took my breathe away I know i just was with you but the way you act is so loving but then youre so cold How can my heart race with joy but be stabbed with pain at the same time Its killing me. Your love is slowly killing me

I am not beautiful I dont see what that means to people Wether its hair or eyes or looks Whether its a personality That beauty form dosent really count to me Beauty is looking at those eyes not for the colors or the speckles But for the story behind. When you look into them and see there soul and can tell that their world is changing. Beauty is looking at someone and noticing all the quirks that mean so much more. Why is beautiful a word marked on boards and not in our hearts You are beautiful if you survive thats what i love about you okay?
