Passing through the days in a sort of stream
Walking through the hallways like a movie
friends on either side
People to smile with at lunch
A person or two to send a wink.
A club and sport to participate in.
Its a delicate balance isn't it?
Like the average teenager,
nothing special at, almost boring.
But it's still a little gem of this thing called life.
Filled with all of those experiences that help us grow
and learn
and become

I have to be strong, smile through the tears
Everything is fine, don't worry I'll take care of it
I have to walk with confidence
even though I want to curl up in a corner
and fade from existence
Don't worry about me I just need a day to reset
Ill be fine I'm strong, I have to be
Unbreakable
A warrior
Tough
Gotta take care of others time for me later
Doesn't matter that I didn't eat for a week
That didn't show enough self control
It will never be enough
I can't cut parts of me out
I can't rid my hatred of myself
I can't stop becoming what I don't want to
I can't just get away from everyone
There's no escaping
I'm trapped
But I'm a warrior, a fighter.
There's nothing wrong with me, I'm fine
Even though I'm not healing fast enough

my mind in in contortion
thoughts swirl and dance
in endless random currents
there is no head nor tail to the madness
as i trying to grab hold of these thoughts
they flit away
and I am driven insane
trying to clasp onto thoughts
that cannot be caught

He used to be in the center of it all
always living in the moment,
Enjoying life in its very essence
Then he got a camera
changed himself and his name
Now he takes pictures if those in the center of attention
Taking amazing photos of those living life in its essence
Now he can't be found as he is hiding behind the camera
Disappearing into someone that is invited to parties for the photos
He has grown small and secluded into a view frame
One sees what he sees and does but not who he is
He is the boy behind the camera

Stormy blue eyes search the horizon from atop a parking garage
The storm despritely rages around the pupil as it searches for the sea
But alas, even eight stories up, endless towers block distant waves from the mixed blue
Yet they still search on, darting back and forth
Trying to find something tht matches the wavy blue eyes

I never realized I carried this little shadow
That awful mistakes from the past actually have consequences
I thought I was invincible before
that I could act and feel
and actually be above someone else
When in reality I was far below.
Thanks to these times when I had hurt others
with no immediate punishment
I suffer now
By being closed off
to all those wonderful people
That I broke apart for pleasure

Sitting atop my perch the wind howls on
While some might find it annoying
as it whips around their hair
It is a comforting feeling for me
As the others move behind glass
I stand until I am alone
Just me and the wind
and the rushing cars below

I need to cry, shout out in frustration
That would bring attention in the city streets
and I cannot set a bad example in my uniform
I have to quietly walk these halls with a smile
As an internal storm rages on

There is a dangerous aspect of summer
Some friends may leave for a while
and there is so much time to think of those that remain
I wish I had work today
even school sounds nice
Anything to keep my mind off of you.
With the coming of summer is the coming of time
Time to really think,
To open your heart and turn off your brain
But it's my brain that has saved my heart
I don't need another thing broken
So I stand in the tiny crowd
That wishes school would come quickly

A toddler is a giant when standing on the highest surface in a playground.
Later, reaching the top branch of a tree means a child has reached the top of their world.
Now I'm sitting on top of 12 story building and can see the tops I thousands of trees.
Shouldn't I feel like I own the world? Like everything is tiny in comparison to me?
It doesn't. Instead I feel small and so unimportant.
I can't go any higher. There is just an empty sky above.
I guess that is the result of being above what you really are.
