Hello, it’s me again It’s been awhile since I’ve heard from you I’m sorry I said what I did It’s just I don’t like to leave straight away I liked your hands all over me I wish you’d call me back I’m sorry I don’t do one night stands Do you like her more than me? Is she what you fantasize about? Give me just one more chance I promise...you’ll like it Hey. This is important I need you to call me back I just took a test... I’m pregnant Please call me back Why do you always send me to voicemail? Your daughter needs you in her life. She’s about to start kindergarten. I’m going to put her on the phone Hi daddy! I miss you Can I come over this weekend? I promise I won’t spill juice on your girlfriends carpet again Just give me a chance! I love you Hi dad, it’s me It’s my 16th birthday. Are you not going to come? I just wish you’d come around more I know things aren’t the way you planned but I’m your daughter too I just wish you’d treat me like your other one Anyways I just wanted to remind you it was my birthday. Call mom back so she stops freaking out It’s your daughter’s graduation. Are you not even going to show? **** you! For 18 years I’ve begged you to just stick around for the main parts Why can’t you remember you have another daughter! Hello dad. I’m 28 now I have my dream job I’m engaged And guess what? I didn’t need anything from you. I’ve waited around my whole life thinking I needed your validation Turns out I can do it on my own I’ve become so successful And I’m proud to say I’m very strong You taught me nothing But I didn’t need to learn from you I’m an amazing teacher I’m stronger than you’ll ever be This is the last time you’ll hear from me.

Pass me that red bottle Pass me that cup of wine Pass me those bad decisions so I can slow down the time Pass me that cold drink so I’ll feel your hand with mine So that when I blink, I’ll wake up to see a sign Cause lately it’s been crazy It’s nothing short of shady Working 9-5 it’s always "Yes" Never a maybe Stuck in one big system Without a say in the decision I always keep on wishing That we were back our position Of remembering all the lessons From all our classroom sessions To walking pass the hallways As we say our one true mission That one day we’ll float higher To see that sun and whatever’s brighter To build one lasting empire But we were burnt out by the fire

it's like falling 6 feet below and  n o t  being able to crawl out of the hole you've dug yourself it's like sleeping for fifteen hours and still not feeling rested it's like failing all of your classes because you can't focus on anything let alone this foreign math that no one can teach you it's like ******* random dudes because you can't actually get attached and let's face it the real reason why you can't is because you like girls instead keep covering up the fact of how you aren't actually okay because no one ******* cares anyway

what it's like to be stuck
Do not wait for someone to offer you their world. Remember, you have your own.

You have your own world.
"Would you look at all these free souls carrying their cages wherever they go?" People are free. their minds free. their speech free. free from slavery. free. but are they truly, free? They have built cages for themselves. They never want to come out of them. We pray to God. unquestionably. unfailingly. but why do we fail to question the real reason why we pray to God? why are we searching for him in statues and people when we know he left this place a long time ago? and if he didn't leave, why do we celebrate what he created and not question what he destroyed? why do we fight to save someone we can't see or feel against the very people he created? Until people come out of the cages, we may never get the answer to these questions.

Free Souls in Cages
hey, it's me again i'm just calling to say that the sunset reminded me of you tonight so enticing illuminating and beautiful but at the same time so intense fiery and passionate drawing me in closer and closer until i'm in your presence and within a moment i'm drenched in darkness danger and silence i stay only because the dazzling starlight hidden in the rubble of darkness reminds me of the moments before dusk

2 am phone calls
when people are in love they often say they simply fell tripped over their own two feet face forward and into the arms of their beloved i did more than simply fall onto the ground of your love you, for me were an ocean and i dived headfirst roughly harshly almost painfully into the waters of “you” i knew i could not swim but i did so anyway i was drowning entangled in you surrounded by this being of “you” engulfed in this feeling of “you” and i did not know what came over me but i let myself drown i did not try to swim back up because if i went back to land, releasing myself from your grasp that would mean losing the feeling of “you” and after submerging into the depth the love the passion of “you” how could i ever leave?

i let myself drown
i think i forgot my place in the universe happiness is fleeting and i knew that once so why do i chase after things that are finite? why do i conquer and destroy everything in my path? the world is supposed to be easy for the taking but the world is taking me i overdose on everything i've never known when enough is enough gluttony, lust, rage the trifecta rule i always break everyone is wrapped up in their own universe struggling with their own problems so why do i expect someone to save me

typing out loud
The sun is shining and in this field it's warm But then I think of your eyes How they were brown like dirt And suddenly I'm thankful for the heated grass I'm lying on It shields me from the regret Of dirt brown eyes and hands fluid like water Those hands were the unbecoming of me But then again I can't blame you completely I was the one who looked down at the dirt and saw you Instead of staring at the sun ahead of me I have healed though I'm surrounded by green grass and enveloped in the sun Perfect conditions for growth
