18/M Just exploring the world a few words at a time
one foot in front of the other you'd say yet for some reason all you do is downplay "it's just a phase," "its because your stuck in your ways" but even when you'd abandon me on the holidays you were my best night, my worst fight a reason to stay up till the moon light half of what I'd write, yet we ended full of spite it was the sneaking behind my back all the qualities I seemed to lack and how you always made me feel like I was the maniac you never truly cared for me don't you dare say you love me or even begin to talk about how great we could be because real love should never be this absentee.

Gaslit
finding myself too often, trapped in your shallow waters stuck searching for your heart, like an otter to an urchin yet I've never been able to crack you open, no matter where I'd start it's always been falling apart, a divergent boundary over an open ocean even when my emotion ceases, it only ever lasts a moment swallowing my pride and emptying my tears, the only thing still working tears lurking into pools of wishful thinking, even with its own flood tide yet there is only one way to cope, drinking and trying to stop sinking maybe one day if I ever gain hope, I'll escape the abyssal zone but I don't want to swim anymore.

the abyssal zone
In a garden of transgressions Were the rains of normality disappeared And the rays of contentment faded The soil crusted with dreary sentiment It was there I lied, a flower starved of regularity Wilted, displaced, and in uncharted territory A journey to comprehend my circumstance began The sudden realization that every season can be a cause for reason With that, gratitude began to poor in The rhythms of sorrow transformed into opportunities for self-development My buds of self-worth, security, and understanding began fluorescence The rains of normality no more, but of support and growth Rays of happiness and understanding Beauty within the dissonance.

The Flowers of Tomorrow
You never think about nobody but yourself, selfish You have been treating me so reckless, endless Without you it's been so lonely, friendless But your lying through your teeth, jealous My heart has become so cold, defenseless Calling on god for you, helpless You'd probably decline though, open-ended

Which way to go?
Do you see me as a flower? Beautiful, yet without any power Tears of pollen escaped my quivering face It was there that I died, picked off the ground But my tears gave rise to a bright kingdom in a garden of transgressions

Sunflowers
10:30 your slumber begins no worries or thoughts of days since past where we'd hold hands and say forever but that had to end 11:30 you hold me closely saying you're lonely I give my testimony we can't last together no matter the weather 12:00 you ask if we'll see each other soon maybe someday on the other side of the moon I whisper as your breaths give way don't slip away...

Sleeping Grief
Tell me how do I love you? I need to know how to breakthrough I wish that I could speak your language I continually chase after the things I could never have Facing all the fears I never grab I sit back and rehearse my lines But yet failed to see the signs, someone was eyeing you first Yet I still jump in head first. I can feel my world unfolding Now tell me if your pretty heart is worth holding I know you can hear me just please say I'm your dearie If our hearts could be syncopated, then I might finally be vindicated Just let me follow your stars tonight.

Communication Error 404
Everyday life is a struggle Sometimes it may get a little a hard to juggle But I just have to reminisce my anfractuous dreams Dreams of love, sleeping side by side, with our fingers intertwined You give me peace of mind, but these feelings are still in decline Call you my R.E.M relationship, my slumber sweetheart Because you’re always a dream away Just. A. Dream.
