Metropolitans **** sensitivity
Cold concrete we stomp with our feet
Glare a path straight above you
Disregard the eyes that surround you
Keep moving and pushing through the pain
We're so hardened we don't even feel the wetness of the rain
We can't AFFORD to feel
There's no time to even feel real
An emotionless society
We drown our sorrows away
**** sobriety
Numb us whole
Our hearts hollow and dark,
just like a hole
An itch from a bug bite
I scratch and scratch
A ***** with a red light
I went too fast
Skipped the warning
Got the ticket
An inconvenient bill, a note that states you went for the ****
I'm bleeding
It pours from my limbs
My heart still pumping blood
A scab to stop the flood
Hardened yet still fresh
Don't pick at it
Unless you want a scar forever
She has bug bites too
Doesn't even bother to scratch
Says she doesn't want a bruise
What a difference
We don't handle our hurts the same
A time consuming uncertainty that burned me like a flame
A flame
A flame that started a forest fire
It burned down all the trees
Now there's nothing left but ash
A darkened, withered, dusty substance that once used to be
A bright, powerful, warm, hungry fire
A forest filled with lucious green trees that kept growing higher
And now
I feel as if she's tired...
My bug bites still itch
scratches
And she
Threw out the matches...
When you sway through that hallway
I can't help but stare at you all day
The air behind you is magnetic
It draws me to you
Opposite but one in the same
I'd forfeit this game
Just for you
You want the same things I do
I'd love you endlessly
As long as the sky's blue
Lucky for us, the sky is always blue
Even at night
Even through the ugliest of storms
You just can't see it
But it's there
Let's spread our love everywhere
Silence!
Inhale deeply
Hold it in
My brain has its own set of lungs
All these thoughts
But yet I bite my tongue
I want to tell you many things
But my brain can't breathe
It's storing the words that want to flow out into the sea
Sirens ignite!
Chaos!
Exhale...
Words come to life
So intense it cuts like a knife
Blank space...
Nothingness...
This is what it's like to be human
Filling... Exploding... Flowing until the end
Brain is void, gone with the day
There is nothing else to say
Like a heat wave in the summer
I indict an intense pulsating aura
Struck with overbearing temperatures
Sweat trickles down your spine
Before you notice, I flee and leave you behind
Like a blizzard in the winter
I am raging at first
until the last bit of snow
Then it's cold and quiet
Piles of frozen water, just like stuck emotions
They are piled up but still there
I breathe in the air
It freezes every last bit of me
I'm cold but yet not emotionless
I'm the most intense seasons of life
I leave you with an impression
That way you won't forget me
That was my plan all along
I may not be present
But I'm always there
Just as the summer and winter
I fade away
But I return
Yes, I'm unforgettable
I freeze and then I burn
The impressions of the cold autumn wind recalls a time of loneliness
While the wind hugs my body
I surrender to its comfort but it quickly disperses
Marking its unknown route across the world
leaving others
questioning its existence

— The End —
