I could hold you in my arms until they fail
Stare into your eyes until they etch their shape into mine
Your smile evokes mine
Contagious
Your touch enthrals
Your presence feels like home
Embrace me

My mind is empty
A blank canvas or rather
A well run dry
Feelings stepped on by thoughts
Rationally assembled
A shell left behind
I can't escape my thoughts
they approach faster still
as my own mind draws dull

The war that rages within me
Only has myself as casualty
The rest are merely
Grazed

The whisper of hatred
The voice inside my head
Whispers in my ear
Before I go to bed
He says look at your life
Spent living in fear
Look at your your friends
Those you hold dear
Look at choices you
Couldn't make
Look at poisons
You wish you could take
But the same voice
That speaks of release
Warns of regret
Those you leave, not at peace
The voice of hatred
Screams with reason
Questions the feeling
Suicide is high treason
Hate the prison
Hate the flesh you wear
Change your look
Do they even care
These people- strangers
You wish to love you
Do they even look your way
Care like you do
About every misstep
Mistake you've made
Every feeling of regret
Thought you've betrayed

Why do I need potions and pills to feel
Takes copious amounts to help
Rid me of inhibition and
experience what will never be real
The missing pieces of my brain
Eat away at my soul
Extremes are all that I find
Ignorance is not bliss, only pain

Every time I speak this word
It loses its meaning
Trying to articulate
A miserable feeling
I make these mistakes
Confusing consequence
With
Realization

I spill my blood in confusion
My guts out of fear
I lay barren
I shed my tears out of sadness
My skin wishes not to be
Shed

I spoke to forget
Everything these nights, I feel
Leaves me with (never-ending) regret
Memory serves no purpose
I learn anew each day
The things I wish to forget
The rest fade to gray

Do you have time on your hands
Or only on your wrist
Free is the illusion
A sleight of hand a twist
Of the tongue
The bending of my own words
My words no longer say what I
Want them to mean
They form
Seemingly unseen
Inside my mind and flow
Seemingly unheard
On deaf ears
My words are softer
When they aren't heard
Like the touch of skin
Once burned
I never know what to say
Silence isn't an option
It feels more awkward that way
