as my eyes roll to the back of my head,
I gain clarity
and tell myself-

“the Earth only spins in one direction;
no amount of delinquency
will ever
give you the power
to change that.”

Endless stars in your dark eyes
Like streetlamps lighting up city skies
Drowned in a pool that's filled with lies
A shattered mirror while all else dies

mer
spinning
falling
out of control

blurry vision
quick decisions
no logic

painful cuts
with silver blades
searing pain

glazed eyes
dull hearts
brains on fire

never ending
thoughts
and anxiety

"better off dead"
said the ones
like us

before they took the gun
blade
pills

and
became
nothing

When did love
become lust?
When did hate
become trust?
When did lies
become real?
When did we
become dust?

Hope is crippling
It fuels and devours
Your soul
It can be the one thing that keeps you going
While signal handedly bring you down
It is a powerful feeling
With a double edge
Consequence

When did lies become the promise
And tears become a certainty - ?

i don't think i like nice people
i feel guilty around them
like my past stains me still
and they see it all

woke up to the sight of a tall hedged maze
as children played in their castles and cardboard boxes with their make believe friends
and as they delved in from my point of view
they realized that i am nothing but an ember
barely keeping my flames alive
