A shattered illusion
of weeping beauty
lies upon the floor.
We can walk on it
'til our feet bleed,
or we can take the
broken pieces
and make a
kaleidoscope
of exquisite
symmetry

I've never felt more than the feeling of nothing
Actively feel less
While internally feeling more

You feel the words
The rejection and lies
You get a feel for the
cold
dense
steel
With horrid words engraved
Stabbing into your soul
Piercing right through your entire being

It's in the nothing that one can be everything
When you’re not held by the bounds of simple words
Or of simple beings, you’re left open to feel
Which also leaves you for solitude
I can't stop these erupting voices from telling me;
YOU'RE DOING IT ALL WRONG
I try my best,
but the best is never enough.
I work till my hands are bleeding,
till my feet are swollen,
till my brain is pulsing.
but it's never enough blood,
not enough pain,
too little of suffering.
in order to get better
they say;
YOU MUST FEEL THE SAME PAIN YOU CAUSED THEM
but enough is never enough
and the pain is never ending.
i will die because of the result of my failure to accept love.
Because even the loudest lyrics
Cannot drown out the pain

I drown myself in music.
To forget everything I feel.
I remember and feel nothing
but what i am hearing at this very moment.

I need to forget it all.
Forget the shame,
the pain,
the agony of it all.

Every line I step across.
I only burden myself.

Every friendship I make turns to ruins.

Every cut
Every blood dropped on to the pavement
was all for you.

You broke me.
And all their touches deformed my heart.

But here I am
Still alive.
