Sedate

Sedate

Your suffering is always greater than mine,
you claim your fears are bigger.
Whine your feelings are better than mine,
insist my feelings are simpler.

Try to laugh my feats away like a joke,
but my will is more forward than yours.
Now don’t expect any warmth from me,
my spirit won’t be ignored.

You think you can quiet my defiance?
But I'm used to standing alone.
Your ego trips never get old
they only harden my resolve.

So you timidly try and silence me,
then make excuses to escape.
‘Cause your wits won't handle me long,
I’m the one you can’t sedate.

Courage

Courage

I find the best way to hurt
is to inhale this precious air and dunk my head in a bathtub
still filling up.
and I can hear the waterfall
I wish to be under
as my ears go under as well,
as my tears dissipate.

Wrong

Wrong

Slap me daddy, abuse me.
Bite my neck, spank me hard.
Pull my hair, make me scream,
show me who’s in charge.

Tie me up, pound me deep,
again and again;
violate me, you own me.
Smother me in sin.

Choke me, defile me.
Turn me over,
take me how you like.
If it’s wrong, I don’t want to be right.

Now finish me,
I’ll have no escape.
Baby take what you crave,
I’m all yours to break.

Painfilled Pleasures

Painfilled Pleasures

Somewhere between wanting to cover my entire body with tattoos
and tearing my skin off
Whatever hurts more.
I want my surface to burn
when hot tears spread out.

Unspoken words like a simphony
in my subconscious abyss.
Sour memories soaring my tongue
like cherry wine.

Trying to fill the void,
but my holes get even deeper.

Don't run your fingers gently on my body,
Make me bleed,
Make me burn alive.

Make me feel pain,
the pain i deserve.

Selfish Suicide

Selfish Suicide

It isn’t brave, and it isn’t clever,
to inflict pain on other people forever.
Life isn’t all about you.
Your life isn’t all about you.
That rope hangs your family too,
and those pills **** your friends.
The pain, hurt and upset
doesn’t stop when your life ends.
So please don’t do it.
Please just take a moment to think.
People will die with you
when you drink that deadly drink.
Don’t tell me I don’t understand.
Twice I tried and twice I bailed.
Twice I tried and twice I failed.
Don’t tell me I don’t understand.
I came through, and so can you.
Let that light at the end of the tunnel be a fresh start.
Don‘t let it be the glint of the blade that enters your heart.
Think about how many have died.
Think about how many have sat and cried.
Think again about your selfish suicide.

Love Me There

Crawl inside my body
Find me
Where I'm most broken
And love me there

If you understand, I'm sorry. Stay strong friend.
