These hands that write have lost their touch This mind that thinks is lost These eyes that see the world around are sheeted over with frost These lips that used to kiss you are chapped without your touch These hands that used to hold yours have grown cold without your love We have lost ourselves In old memories Clinging onto what used to be You and Me

Drifting Apart
My brain has two sides, and they’re always at war. I cannot seek help, I’m rotting from my core. A feeling of mania A longing to be free I wish you’d see that this isn’t me. And after the mania comes a wave of depression, I try to be myself try to fight this suppression. I inhale my pain and hold my breath, until I can’t hold any more and I’m walking with death. Then I open my eyes and days have passed by, But I’m lost in myself I was trapped inside. My brain has two sides I’m at war with myself. I’m rotting from the inside out, Please hear my cry for help.

Me against my brain
She looks at me wide-eyed and confused, This can’t be me She looks worn and used. The tiny red dots form a pattern on her face, She looks back at me and whispers, “You’re a disgrace.” You’ll always be alone You’ll never be free, Free from this psychic garbage That no one else can see. Free from the chains you’ve built, from the leash they cannot see, Free from this sadness and free from me. And as I look at her, she starts to laugh and put thoughts into my head. “You know you don’t deserve to breathe.” “You know you should be dead.” You see, these thoughts do not come from me. It’s not what I want to think. But they’re from the girl inside of me, And she’s all that I can see

Don’t believe her
One look and your walls come down You’re screaming but I hear no sound I try to get close but you push me away, Try to piece us together but your heart is astray. We could be so much more But you are blinded by pain, You don’t want to open your eyes You don’t feel the same. Our love is like the rain, because When it rains it pours You’re drowning in your hate Let me pull you ashore. One look and I’m done with Your eyes pierce me in two I don’t long for anyone else, All I want is you.

****
Shiny stars and clouds of dust. ****** tension, full of lust. A simple touch ignites a fire deep within my body's desire. "Ignore the heart!" my body cries, and set your worries to the side. Nature does as nature calls so slam my body against the wall, and navigate my body-say. Oh, please, fulfill my pleasures way.

Distraction
No one understands the pain I am in. I sit here in complete silence but the silence is deafening. My thoughts grow louder and louder, and before I know it I'm drowning in words with no way to speak.

Overshadowing thoughts
Your voice; a melodious tune that replays itself in my head, and as I watch you speak the words dance off your lips and linger onto mine... Divine. That's what you are. A being so rare, so bright, that I am fortunate enough to have crossed paths with you. And though our paths may not be intertwined, the thought of you is burned into my mind. You have left your mark and I am scarred. So beautifully scarred.

Scarred
I found heaven and hell in you. Two worlds colliding, manifesting only a whirl of confusion in my brain. You brought love and peace into my life, followed by a world of lies. When we came together God and Satan danced, creating beautiful chaos.

What You Bring
You don't see what I see. A beautiful human being whose body I'm eager to explore, because a body like yours is one that I adore. As we wake up next to each other, I see the sunlight dance off your skin begging me to come in. Let me in. Allow me to explore and feel every surface and crevice of your body.

You.
What goes on inside my brain? You wouldn't know cause you're not insane. My depressive thoughts are taking control and my inner demons are taking over, I'm sober...but I'm drunk on sadness. Sadness that seeps through my body and into my veins "I'm not insane" though they say, but they don't know me anyway.   I surrender myself to the demons inside, Nowhere to hide but behind this mask I've created for the world to see. It's not the real me though. Beneath this mask is the face of someone lost. Lost in lies. Lost in sadness. Lost in love. And as I try to fill this void the hole gets bigger, making it harder for me to stay happy. But what's happiness anyway? I'm not insane. I'm just me.
