does no one hear my screaming? the water keeps rising in this room that’s just walls there’s no window or door no glimmer of hope the water is rising and there’s nowhere to swim but no one is coming and pleas echo unheard what do i do? how does no one know i’m fighting this battle completely alone. this is what i feel inside of my mind but it’s only i who can break down the walls no matter how loud i scream

help.
We bounce together On a clear spring day Got home from school And together we play “Let’s play a game” We’re jumping on mars And all of a sudden We’re falling through the stars But somewhere between The then and the now You drifted away from me And I don’t know how

slow down don’t rush the music there is no point if not to make it sound lovely and to feel it as you play, why try to get through as soon as possible if it ruins the process? is that not the answer to the meaning of life? slow down smell the flowers and listen to the music the point is the simple act of living. so feel and breathe and soak it all in for if there is no depth no ups, no downs no decrescendos followed by careful pause there is no beauty and no point. so take the time and make the mistakes because my dear, what are you trying to rush through? the simple act of being alive?

stop and listen to the music.
that person is not me. yes, i am she, but not in the way i want to be. she is skinny and smart and pretty. successful talented fast and witty. the things i’d give to be her now did you lose yourself? why? how? but isn’t she still you? yes, but she’s the same it seems that now life is just a losing game. you used to laugh and stand with pride you were living and loving in a way that could not be denied but here we are four years later and all i want makes me, my own traitor.

why
contradiction; elements opposed to one another like the different parts of my brain a round square i’m too passionate but i don’t care i’m too selfless but i’m not kind i am a walking contradiction or am i a standing one how do you care too much and too little at the same time? fill every minute of my schedule when all i want is a break i strive for a simple life but i work towards hyper success i will never be satisfied because of my own standards at my very core all i am is a shell i am a contradiction.

you.
a face i used to call friend laugh and smile feel like home which I would no longer even acknowledge if it passed by. a place with items long gone and a shell which i no longer fit into.

the past
if i can’t have you then i don’t need to but i do need to know you. i still want to know your hopes and dreams and how your day was and how that thing went and how you are doing; i still want to hear your thoughts on religion or that new book or new law. i don’t need you, no matter how much i may want you, but i do need to know you, and have you in my life, or else i fear i will spend every waking day trying to fill the void in my life that is your presence, your thoughts, your voice, your smile.
