Regrets

I regret what I did
And what I see
In my mind
That’s a dark sea
I regret a lot
Sometimes every moment
Can someone stop me
From regretting things

I didn’t do anything really wrong. I just find myself laying in bed nickpicking all I did wrong. Usually just a little thing like saying “Hey” instead of “Hi” because it would’ve sounded better. I know it’s stupid and foolish and really is a waste but I can’t help it.

A Perfect Child

The perfect child
Always does as their told
That gets all the A’s
Seems perfect every way
But wait
But wait until they are alone
The walls come down
And the mask falls off
And what do we got
A not so perfect child after all

Everyone thinks I am this person who is perfect as far as caring about people and school and won’t try to do anything wrong. People have told me this, meaning it as a compliment. But I can’t help but think this when they say that.

Me and Time

Time is always catching up to me
Doesn’t anyone understand how hard it can be
They always say
Get your head out of the clouds
And your heart out of the dark
Don’t they understand how hard it can be
Of course they don’t
Cause they aren’t me
They don’t understand how hard it can be
With time always catching up on me

Just a poem I made one morning. Kind of one of the first ones I actually wrote down and thought about sharing
