It’s sad when you can feel the end looming nearby You can hear it in the inflections and the more frequent silences You can see it in the empty eyes that were once filled with love Stuck in that place between actually being in love and just being convienient

Convenient
The secrets I hide cling to my insides clawing their way out to the bottomless pit The lies the lies they sink sink sink spilling onto the canvass just outside the door Running does no good in a dream the darkness always nipping at your seams Fluttering eyes R.E.M r...e..m You know that your sleeping dreaming convulsing Splattering onto the tiara I wore as a child The disappointment that hangs in the air is all but mild Swirls of orange around bubbles of glass Two yellow lines DO NOT PASS Not good enough, not good enough Not good enough for who?? I’m good enough, I’m good enough Just never for you.

I’m good enough
Is the possibility of happiness worth the possible pain? How much time do I spend before it counts as in vein? I think things are getting better but then comes the rain. Are you worth the wait? Or when you know do you know? Does not knowing mean it’s wrong? We’re together but I’m still alone.

Possibility of Pain
The pain, the scars, the memories they weigh so much You run and you run but the load never lifts You laugh and dream and think of other things but only for so long.. They are always watching and waiting in those moments of silence in those moments of sorrow and doubt They spring and coil like a snake And pull you back to the beginning.. Back to the darkness. Looking for help in the wrong places so many different faces It’s too heavy to carry alone but too much to share Just bottle it up and hide it in there Pretend to be happy but never feel normal.

Bottle it up
To the average you, from the average me There is nothing going on, as far as any average eye can see. But if you look a bit deeper, past the flesh and bone You’ll see that my heart beats even faster if you call me on the telephone. If you look at my in the hall, my soul seems to die, my heart jumps out of my chest and it makes me want to cry If you held my hand My muscles would get tighter My heart would skip several beats and the shine would shine even brighter If you were to kiss my lips my body would die inside my heart would stop my knees give way and as I lay on the ground you’d push the hair from my face and I love you is all you’d say But these are all what if’s, could been’s or never wills Because only in a dream do you feel the way I do Only in a dream do you say I love you.

Only in my dreams
I saw you this morning in the shadow of a cloud You couldn't hear a word I said even though I was screaming so loud The end is coming the end is near but the pounding of your heart beat is all you could hear I ran to your side and whispered in your ear I love you, I love you, I love you my dear! Please listen to me, please open your eyes, Please give me the key, please undo these ties I shake you and shake you, why wont you wake? Please wake up now, Don't make me wait The tears are streaming down my cheeks and there is no hand to wipe them away no soft soothing voice, no warmth from your body No lovely face to distract me from my pain No one to love me. No love at all.

Bad Dream
I don't like feeling lost For so long I felt like I was found, Because I found you.. Now your love waivers and breaks me a little more each day I felt so strong with you, everyday I could handle With you by my side I could conquer the world, my worst fears, the numbness I feel But I feel you slipping like sand between my fingers but the harder I squeeze the faster you fall away The weight of me and my responsibilities is too much for you to help carry, but I can help carry yours too! I can be there for you as you are there for me at the same time, we can fall together, forever and meld into one. But you won't listen, you are too stubborn. I am not exactly what you are looking for but that's what you are to me.. please don't leave.

Lost
Stuck in my head all day, thinking about things I already thought. Forgetting that life is about more than just what we feel, because what if what I feel isn't even real? This world is built on perception but when you only see one side, there's no real connection. I wish I could stop worrying about what happened before and what happens next and instead experience now, it shouldn't be so complex. Just live in the moment and not feel so numb. Stop ignoring all my problems and waiting for them to be done. The world around me is blurry as I zone in and out and I go to that place in my head I never tell anyone about. I can't seem to wake up, it's like I'm waiting for some kind of salvation but the only real salvation is complete realization. Of how I haven't lived in every moment even though I know time slowly ticks, inching closer to the last. But I still waste my time letting my life go on past.
