perhaps we’re stuck
on seeking out a mirror image
of our own fractured souls
is it enough to make us whole?
someone to give us an arms length
but never hold us too tight

oh how i’ve missed you,
the scent of your somber
how i could fall into your wandering eyes
i deserve this, don’t I?
it’s just like mum said
you love the beautiful lie
but paint dries,

then it cracks


guess it’ll do for now

Erase everything

Pulling apart to find nothing

Endlessly tearing

Compulsively

I need to stop

Shouldnt you be doing something else?

Lets think about that for a minute

Arent you bored?

Are you sure this is what you need?

Why is it always about what you need?

Do you know what you want?

Would you believe me if i told you?

Would you even try if you believed me?

Wouldnt it fall through if you did?

Would it matter anyway?

Oh god, is this what you’ve been doing?

Lets think about this for a minute

Its three in the *******

You only think about yourself dont you

Are they good for you?

Are you good for them?

Let’s think about that for a minute

Aren’t you…

Hey whats that behind you

— The End —
