grey
tired eyes, lively soul.
I try to be strong because you run when I am weak; I can't show when I'm low, only when I peak. I've become so terrified to let let any emotion seek I'm now small, defenseless, meek.

Habitual.
Not enough for time Broken for a head start Indecisive comfort Harder as the one to part Genuine in a fallacy Secrets from the heart Unsure intimacy Simplicity is a lost art Risks too alive Gone away for the smart Silent explanation No goodbyes for the depart

Self-faltering.
Bringing back memories from months ago To be in love since this afternoon. Wrapping my mind around rewards and consequences To justify being there soon. Using the truth of the near future as a lie To appear as content as I tend to feel. Avoiding urges that are quickly returned To confirm my actions are real. Opening blunt, censored thoughts To explain sporadic running away. Blocking and forgetting what forever is to be To allow events to happen as they may.

Justify, to.
A scene with a face in the mind, Missing that feeling of some kind. Remembering words of beauty and times, Melodies of skies and rhymes. Dancing to capture moments of bliss, Experiencing more than able to miss. Affection radiating from a look, Not admitting how much he took. Chest and mind held down as bait, Truths to be told from the wait.

Yeilding.
I can't tell you where I am For us I never had a plan Every time I'm about to reveal what I want to say I harden up and push away Because I only know how to keep myself at bay I constantly want to tell you that I miss you There will always be so much I want to do To be re-engulfed in our own taboo Everything we were starting before I withdrew I speak vague because that's most sincere When truth is my biggest fear Cut my own voice off so thoughts will always be unclear Because it's so much easier than to adhere Simultaneously wishing and denying that these feelings reappear And I wonder how the self-inflicted confusion began The reasons why I habitually ran Even after I realized you were the man That I truly wanted hand in hand I'm unaware of what you want to display We both assume that it's all okay But I'm only comfortable enough to leave communication grey The terrifying feelings inside we're too afraid to let brew When uncertainty is all we've ever been through

Grey.
It's been a while, And a while just turned into forever. But because you were young We all thought you'd just get better. Reality strikes To prove that we're not invincible, Showing that going to treatment to rid a disease Isn't that simple. At 26 we're told that we haven't yet lived, That we're still insignificant. If this is true, why are you so missed, Why did you leave such an imprint? But despite this loss we have to believe that life just goes on, That the rest of us left behind have other challenges to face. We're told that we'll recover And that life's flow will restore it's pace. You were insane, entertaining, free, and so much more. When we say you'll live in our memories it isn't a lie. But to the man whose very soul we find to inspire We are forced to say Goodbye.

Cookie; forever young.
Near as near can seem Hazy all in a dream Opposed to the regime Satisfied in make believe Simplicity in the naive Hallucination to relieve

Blurred.
The sore on my neck, The mark that you left, Not a thing that I regret.
