is it the blood in my vein
perhaps the DNA in my cells
The fact that im partially insane
or the way my name spells

Is it the tone of my skin,
perhaps places that i've been
or is it simply
the time I was born in

what are the variables
that make me me
my limitations
and the person i can be

is it the people i keep around
the loves that i've found
their personalities
and how they're earthbound

is it my fault
can i blame anyone else
for the way that I am
other than my self

There is nothing above me
I’m living life on a pedestal
peace and quiet is all I see
with my sight that ranges for miles

time keeps passing
but I’m not getting old
every day is sunny
so I’ll never feel cold

I’m living the way I want
everything is as it should
you can ask me if you wish
but you know it’s all good

My life is the picture
that I myself drew
everything I could wish for
has finally come true

My life is like a song
I can’t help but sing
but everything is changed
once I hear the alarm ring

"it's a way to hold on"
is that so?
couldn't it be a way
to just let go?

It's like another dimenssion
where you throw all you tension
without gaining any
unwanted attention

It's a way to express you're emotions
whether big or small
but what do you do
if you feel no emotions at all

I know what you're thinking
"he must be on narcotics"
i'm not
i'm just slightly psychotic

I know it sounds weird
when it's loudly said
but it's just another poem
from someone emotionally dead
