My mind claims
To be the master

So chain me near
The pastor  

When Asking god
For help
It fills me with laughter

For I know in this
Moment
It really
doesn’t matter

I’m holding my heart
In my hand
And it’s only bleeding
Out faster

Depression clouds
Above my head

They swarm

With no one there
To keep me warm

When it rains it pours

And
Once again I’m left alone
To brave
These storms

Hand in hand
We chased
This dance

Gliding across
The fragile glass

I turned to the right
You took your stance

And Within your gaze
I became entranced

Relaxing my mind
to make it last

That’s when I
Opened my eyes
And it came to pass

So lost in the dream
I forgot this floor
Was made of glass…

We hide away
In fantasies

Where sweeter
Sins taste
Like butterscotch
Candies

To compliment
The bitter truth
Of our Malaises

But do we really
Know what
It means

When ducking
Away from
Bashful daydreams

You
The only thing stopping
You
Is
You

But hey
I’ve been there too

So used to the pain that
Without some sort of
Suffering
You don’t feel
Like you're in
The right mind
Frame

And that’s okay

But some advice
Don’t mind the
Time as it passes by
Because yes it's
True that time
Heals all wounds

Yet What they
don’t tell you
Is that it may
Take an eternity
To get through

So maybe tonight
Go outside
And look at the sky

Do you see the stars?
How they shine so bright?

Well one of them
Is you

And once you see
The only thing stopping
You
Is
You

There’s nothing you can’t
Do

I believe in you,

Feel the need to cry?
Do that too

I understand
I’ve been there too

But remember
We are all
Here for
You
