I did not sing in the shower today. Oh, I made noises in there, But they weren't meant to be... Pretty. With my shoulders quaking, And my breath shaking, Feeling it raking and ripping through me, In and out, in and out, Just need to breathe In and out, in and out Through the pain inside, And a satly mixture of water and tears On my lips, my cheeks. Yet my eyes Are somehow... Dry. No. I did not sing in the shower today. Today, I cried.

I didn't sing in the shower today
Cold, rust, metallic Bars of stagnance and "normal" Hold me captive, Caged.

Under Pressure
Ideas are better than reality. In your mind, Things are so much more, Colorful and glossy. With your expectations raised high, And a brightness in your eye, All for harsh reality To splash cold water in your face. And turn everything Into dull blues, blacks, and grays.

I refuse to stay Inside a relationship. Trapped by loneliness Desperation, self-pity; I deserve better than that

Freedom
They put my cage beside a window. While my heart bleeds And my body remains stagnant, My dreams touch the Stars, sun, moon. They are as trapped as I am.

Liar Liar
We are all wanderers Roaming the land and Sea Searching for the things We hope make us Complete. We are all scavengers Picking up little bits Seeing if anything fits Into our own warped self- Image We are all desperate Frantically trying to Sew, tape, staple, and glue The abandoned pieces of others, Re-used. We are all seperate Full of light and darkness Of emotions and images Things we've taken, stolen, adapted, Given. We are all wanderers We are all scavengers We are all desperate We are all seperate And yet, We are all connected.
