I used to believe that pain had
some kind of cosmic
threshold

could only go so far then strengthen me
making me
bold

I've been branded with a much deeper, darker,
wider, weeping & gnashing of teeth
type of pain of which I thought was
reserved for an un-earthly
hell

Now I know it can exist
long before death so far as I can
tell
I'm still believing You Lord that we were always only passing thru
When my sister told me she had depression I cried.
And Cried
And Cried
then i understood because i would too from everything we have gone through.
She makes me smile and laugh but also cry and fight with her.
She has some good days but somedays she has bad ones where she tells me its getting harder to get out of her bed or not to overdose but even though she might think i dont pay attention to her or watch or listen is very small i look up to her, She is 1 in a million to me and very rare
this one is personal

I knew it was him
When I saw the Daisies
Pop out from nowhere
I knew it was him
When my Pepsi
Tasted a little sweeter
I knew it was him
When I could smell the fresh soil
From a farm far far away
I knew it was him
When the sky
Was as blue as his eyes
I knew it was him
When grandpa came to visit me

As I sit here
With my headphones on
Listening to nothing
But the music playing
Into my ears
As my room stays quiet
I think about
Everything
Everything and anything
I think to much
I think too little
I think a lot
I don’t think enough

Can you see
That i'm not happy anymore?
Can you see
That I don't laugh anymore?
Can you see
That i'm always sad?
Can you see
That all I ever do is cry?
Can you see
That i'm not joyful anymore?
Can you see
That I don’t sing anymore?
Can you see  
That i'm not myself anymore?
Can you really see me?
