the cost of indecision
my heart’s always on the edge like it’s standing on a thin wire, waiting for the wind to shift. always anxious ‘bout what’s next: what tomorrow holds, what people’s lips might tell, how they would feel and what faces they would make. it trembles over everything and just about anything, my heart’s always on the edge, ...but maybe it's just the way it beats.

my heart's always on the edge
I gave you all my overflow but you said it wasn’t enough. So, I gave you more pieces of me but to you, it still wasn’t enough. Then, I gave you half of me but still, it wasn’t enough. So, I gave you everything, everything, and all of me and yet, it still wasn’t enough. Now, I have nothing left to give, nothing left even for myself But still you claim, I didn’t give you enough.

i know it's unfair to have left you there yet, silently wish you would still have me in case my mind changed.

you are not special
Every step you take towards me I take three steps back away from you I just can't, I don't have it in me To just stand still And let you get closer to me I just can't, I don't have it in me To take the step towards you And meet you halfway I just can't even if I wanted to I just can't, I don't have it in me.

what is the point of being deep     if nobody dares to dive its depth?

Midnight Thoughts #01
While I was fighting the beast I loathe the most I became just that And I didn't even realize 'til I saw the look in their eyes.
