Heightened Senses
Benny Oct 2021
Pacing around the house
The voice in my head shouts
Round n round in circles
Everything feels universal

Am I manic?
Is this panic?
Am I hyper?
I cannot decipher

Why can’t I just ******* chill
My mind won’t let me sit still
All sensations heightened
I hear a bang, I’m frightened

Smoke your flower, draw it deep
Feel the smoke hit your lungs
The people around you cannot sleep
The sounds they make, are they speaking in tongues?

For You
Benny Jul 2021
When I think about a place to go
To be with you when I feel sorrow
I close my eyes and think of you
My heart full of feelings, red and blue

Time, a construct that forever bends
Finality, hard to accept when it comes to the end
When you left I saw a million stars collide
A never ending trail of stardust left behind

Twinkling above ✨
Sprinkling down 💫
I feel you 🌙
When you’re around 🪐

3am Thoughts
Benny Jun 2021
Today does not equal tomorrow.
The past does not define your today.
You know the familiarity of sorrow.
Consuming you, do not let it take you away.

Falling
Benny Jan 2021
You give me so much
And nothing at all
I am your crutch
Yet you watch me fall

Laying in darkness
My mind hears all
A soul resembling starkness
My heart feels small

A miserable c*nt
Is what you called me
Bearing the brunt
I’ve lost my energy

The Depths of My Mind
Benny Oct 2020
The depths of my mind
Busy, loud, at times resigned
This wild vivid imagination
Stories alive of all possible situations
Sleep is evading, my mind pervading
Here come the dreams, constantly invading

33

33
33, what a weird time
Still doing lines
drinking red wine
She found her lifeline
she believes she’s about to shine

Burning sage she’s all new age
She stares at the stars
Is there really life on Mars?
Her head in the clouds
Imagination running wild
Her own fantasies make her smile

Give her a book
she’ll love you forever
Give her jewels
She’s unimpressed, that’s not really clever
Possessions don’t stimulate her mind
Your status doesn’t need to be defined

How you earn your living doesn’t matter
Be wary that your dreams don’t shatter
A strength in her like no other
She’s Not broken
She’s only just awoken
