when the answer to every thought is
"what does it matter"
and the scary thing is
it's not like depression makes you think so
it's just that you have to think long enough

to all the overthinkers

And All I Need Is Sleep

And All I Need Is Sleep

My sleep is not like rivers
l o n g
My winded song without vigor strums
And wavers desperately along
In search of a lengthy bend to break

And all I need is sleep

weaving a web of lies

weaving a web of lies

my lies haunt me
every day
inside my head

I've lost my sanity
I can't face the truth

if anyone finds the truth

all I think about is
all the tears
all the blood
all the sadness
all the regret
all the lying

how can you trust me
how can I trust myself

Broken

Broken

Do you think I'm broken?
'Cause I can't tell anymore.
My smiles aren't mine;
And I can't tell anyone
Because they'll only pity me,
Or take it too personally.
But it's not about you
It's about me.
Maybe I am broken,
My mind,
My heart,
My head.
My happiness is a lie
Because I'm broken.

Fallen Petal

Fallen Petal

Black dress
Tears of red
Heart a rose
An open wound
Bleeding petals

Dedicated to my grandfather, all others we have lost, and all who grieve.

Cold

Cold

The wind is blowing;
It's cold;
I'm cold;
I'm freezing to death;
I need warmth.
