Like a butterfly going back to its cocoon shedding its intricate wings and wrapping itself in darkness waiting for the change to be complete back to the familiar nothingness that has become so familiar it feels like home

Caterpillar
For the times you understood, but said nothing at all For the days you saw my sadness, and pretended otherwise For the hugs you didn’t give For the calls you didn’t answer For the funeral, stay home.

Dear Alex,
Stayed in bed just a little too long Driving there just a little too fast Not thinking of what the day holds Daydreaming about the past Lost in thoughts In stories that never happened In words that were never said In love that was never felt Lost in the deep dark places of the mind Trying to move on Getting lost again and again Out of one maze and into another Seeing the light but never quite making it there

Daily Life
You slowly cracked my cynical shell And melted my frozen heart You were the secret that I wanted to tell, But I didn’t know where to start You were the rainboots to my puddle, You were the sun on a gray day My feelings you did befuddle, But I couldn’t stay away You became my addiction, I got in over my head Too bad our love was fiction, Because these words remained unsaid

Maybe One Day
Windows down, music up, thoughts flowing through the breeze I've always loved you, but you'll never love me You love my best friend, and she loves someone else, Funny the things we do to ourselves

Life
Nothing is wrong But everything is wrong There’s no reason for this sadness, But it’s inescapable It’s pulling me down, drowning me Over and over again Lost in this sea of thoughts Unable to find the way home Tired of being here, But unable to move So lonely, but so unable to talk So exhausted, But always awake The waves of guilt and shame never sleep

I'm Fine, Just Tired
