I'm the owner of my mind.
This is me.
The keeper of my heart.
This is me.
The vessel of my soul.
THIS IS ME.
The voice of my thoughts.
I'm my own person.
I see though my own eyes.
My perception.
I hear though my own ears.
This is what I receive.
Through my own lungs I breathe.
And it makes me want to heave.

Things aren't always as they appear.
You never truly know the ones that you hold dear.
It's painful, that the truth always comes at the point of a knife.
And the fears we have, come to life.
When the knife went in your chest.
You had to lie down to rest.
But it was a farce.
The pain wasn't anything too harsh.
They assure you, you will recover.
Aren't we suppose to love one another?
And these feelings that we hoard.
Small things that can easily be ignored.
And it's such a shame.
That we always know who to blame.
Cause I never saw this coming.
You would think it unbecoming.
I've always known what to do.
To put myself in a better mood.
And it hurt, everyone could see.
It just wasn't enough to **** me.
People love to see other people suffering because its not them. We WANT to see others fail.

I know you still have my heart
stored somewhere I'd never
think to find because the
space between my ribs
always feels so cold,
causing them to
see only the
heartless
side of
me.

They say that time
Slips through your fingers
Like sand
But it’s not really true
Sand is much easier to hold on to
Time runs so fast you could think it was trying to win a marathon.

You hung yourself at the end of a tree.
Where you first planted the seed.
You watered it with your pain and grief.
It reached deep down to the roots.
And spread through the branches out to the leaves.
Where they fall back to the earth.
And sink down into the dirt.
The only person who was there was me.
But my hands where tied and I couldn't get free.
My eyes were glued shut, I didn't want to see.
What were we doing?
We were just going in circles.
And somehow you still blame me.
We cause our own ruin.
