It’s funny how a night of laughter Still leaves me with this sting of sadness The empty words echoing the Empty inside And even if I tried If I said I’d reached another soul I would have lied At the bottom of the bottomless hole The loneliness still shouts in riot

In Riot
I wish I was straight or gay, Not something in-between Fancying her and fancying him, Confused day after day. Make it stop Freeze my heart Rip its veins Tear it apart Or even lock it in the dark But please make it stop.

In-between
I think I finally understand When they say Life’s not black & white It’s all shades of grey I caused her so much pain And still I’d make those choices, day after day She became my sunshine as much as my rain And me I don’t feel okay I played my cards, placed my bets It must make me a Horrible person To have no regrets She said It’s just things of the past But my sky’s still overcast Maybe one Spring day I’ll feel okay at last

Sitting on the windowsill looking at my phone, I feel prone to forget you are Gone And still, I’d rather play this game of King and pawn than remember you are Gone Sitting on the windowsill looking at my phone, for it feels just a bit like Home

Windowsill
...That lad with sinkhole eyes. Don’t you realize? He’s given up on ever finding someone as sharp, clever, beautiful and blinding as the one once his sun. The empty smile, you ask? Just a mask. Would be quite rude to show a dark and hollow soul, no? The drooping shoulders? Oh, just the weight of the boulders he’s been pushing up since then. What kind? Same as every other man. Carved from regret, I bet

Every other man
If She keeps breaking my heart time after time, A whole book of poetry I’ll eventually rhyme

Rhyme
On that sad night I felt it Without a shadow of a doubt For a part of me faded away And I asked my past self: Is it all in vain? Though I’d felt too much sorrow To handle any pain So I boarded the next one On that sad night My soulmate jumped in front of a train

On a train
And if I died right then I wouldn’t mind because my mind was at peace, and none of the people I’d met would I miss if I died right then in that moment of bliss

If I died
I’m sorry, stillborn encounter. You existed and then were dead (at least in my head). Hesitation’s often deadly: oh, how I wish we’d met. But it was too late. Call it whatever you want, I don’t believe in fate. All I got was this nickel for a keepsake and now I must live with it, all of the future me who’ll never be. See? That’s what keeps me up at night when I cannot sleep. Wondering why we wouldn’t meet, questioning the path I chose. But hey, that’s Life. Anything goes.
