(Drink) Remember to smile Remember to show your ok Hold your head up ….But I’m sad Quiet! (Drink) Remember to breath Don’t talk to much Lower your voice …. But I want to be I said Quiet! (Drink) Let go Push away Be more distant Don’t let them know you want them … But I’m lonely Shhhh! (Drink) Don’t let them know your inner thoughts Don’t ask for it Ignore the cold feeling Actually ignore feeling at all … But thats not healthy Watch yourself! (Drink) No one cares that your not ok Joy is for the lucky ones Your allowed to be alive not exist … But I want to exist, be loved and Dont fool yourself! (Drink) You think your fighting against someone Your not Remember I am you and your only talking to me (Drink)

Inner Thoughts
We gave it a shot and as the medicine cooled and chilled the veins it mended the illness pooled within and oh what rush but as the days past there was a need a need for more the darkness was seeping back in and only doses where given minimal but satisfying heart-wrenching but heart-mending what better medicine then love oh but in truth what worse It clings to the heart and intwines itself with all that it surrounds once those doses are up the pain floods back in the shakes the pit the tears are what take over they devour whats left and shrivel you up and take its place as that constant cycle reminding what life is like pain filled and alone "try again" it’ll tease but instead you’ll cower and hide in your defeat "this my surrender" you’ll say and hope to God you’ll listen.

Medicine
You became a fantasy You planted a seed that bloomed into a flower It grew tall and colorful Oh it was wonderful But like the busy man You had other deeds to tend to Your first rose grew thorns and pricked you So now some other tends to it not knowing of the pain it shall bring While your second rose you neglect It longs for your tending love And you believe it to be strong on its own But in reality it gets weaker as the days pass You leave it in the care of no one When the petals fall and it's leaves begin to wilt You pay no mind You see the weeds begin to choke its roots but instead of tending to it You leave it be The flower holds on for dear life hoping one day, maybe one day, the tender man will tend to its needs...

His Rose
I've forgotten what you sound like If you were near What you smelled like Would be unfamiliar I can hardly remember what you look like No calls Or text But the silence I like the best Happy Father's Day To a father who was never here

All we had intertwined But that was our crime So deny, deny, deny Don't worry I'll be fine

“I Hope Your Happy Now Your Free” Free from the eternal feelings From the bleeding heart  the one I played before you  Those words are now cut  short of what was to be said  But be happy this was all a game like its always been This all was foolish I became the fool  believing believing that I was all you see I was blind to my mistake  your heart was not mine to take so go on  I’ll get out of your way  “I Hope Your Happy Now Your Free”

Go On (Inspired by Melanie Martinez A Thousand Words)
Look, Don't touch, It just sprouted It's rooted deep bellow you, It's forbidden you know this, No you can't decide It has been decided for you These are the rules the boundaries... Why now do you question them? Is it cause this is new? Is it cause u've known of everything else, but this, this is new. Stop! Your hand will get stuck! Stop fighting what you know! Let it go! Help it flourish. That is your job! Get back to work!

Forbidden
This family is filled with hypocrisy Do as I say not as I do The fool is you For you obey You conform to their ways You desire approval But receive disgrace Mess up and you'll pay   But shut your eyes and close the door maybe they'll be nice, Oh what hope there is to grasp at the wake of that end, but none for now, hold your breath Wait till you turn blue But in that last gasp for air they'll pinch your nose and hold your mouth, shhh a little longer they'll whisper until finally your gone

Family
I'm loosing it My vision blurs As it takes over. I don't feel it. Or do I? Is that why my head feels on fire, why my throat closes? Can I turn it off? Just take the key out of the ignition, Flip the switch Let it all die out Would it fade under water? Can I watch it disperse and let the light fade? I want to see that last intake of suffering See that final bubble float to the surface....
