Dead Lock Jul 2015
I constructed myself a glass box
You can see
But you can't touch

I love to hide in my glass box
It's solid, impermeable
Though it may have become my crutch

I cannot open my glass box
My emotionless prison
My safety is my noose

I don't care if I'm stuck in my glass box
It's now a pandora's chest
And I'm hell ready to let loose
Dead Lock Jul 2015
I am thirteen
With a view of this world
As slender as a pin
But this tiny point is deep
And sometimes I dive within
Dead Lock Jul 2015
I drown
I thrash
I scream

Yet when I look around
Everyone breathes but me

Long ago
I had a glinting sword
A mighty steed
And a honorable word

Times of now
My steel has rusted
My horse has lamed
And my word never trusted
Dead Lock Jun 2015
Never again will I cry
Never again will I crawl
Never again will I allow my heart to fly
For I will be nothing at all
Dead Lock Jun 2015
Once upon a time
A girl and her demons
Fell in love

It didn't end well

Once upon a time
An flawless little child
Played with fire and blades

She's not so perfect anymore

Once upon a time
That innocent angel
Collapsed in defeat

Her devil knelt down and smiled
Dead Lock Jun 2015
Our moral glass
Breaks easily
Like a feral beast
With a china mask
