Cain Jul 2019
Love is a pain
Always hurting
Neverending guilt

Good and bad
What's the difference?
Maybe there isn't

Thinking of falling
Into the pit
All alone once again

Forced back out
Putting on a smile
Is this real?

Overrated reality
Too much stress
Only to shatter under pressure
Cain Jul 2019
The beat has been soothed
No more ache
Is this the relief I need?
Only time will tell

The scar is still there
All those days
The good and bad
Constant reminders of how it was

I still don't understand
This lingering feeling I hold
Should I let go
Or should I let it free?
Cain Jul 2019
Heart is racing
The beat won't cease
Neverending rhythm

The pain is deep
So much it stings
Wish it drew near
Before I pass out from fear

My head is light
Feeling quite faint
Wish the pain would cease
Just for one moment
Please let the beat end
Cain Jul 2019
The inner darkness closes in
It wraps you in warmth
Never wishing for your departure

A glimmer is seen
Far from your comfort
You reach for it desperately
Grasping only to nothing

Ripping free from the darkness
Stomping it down into the ground
Freeing yourself to reach again

Pulled back from your goal
Ensnaring you once more
Feeling that familiar warmth
Never wanting to leave again

A voice calls for you
Head shooting up
Struggling to be free once more

The pull is strong
But you are stronger
Pull pull pull
Until the bindings snap

Running for the glimmer
Finding only a small light
It warms you to your core

This feeling is new
It makes you glow
Forcing the darkness to flee
Now you find free at least
Cain Jul 2019
Muted voice
A sound unheard
No one will notice

Voice unmuted
Only static
No one wants to hear

So unhappy
Mute or unmuted
No one will hear

The sound is gone
Silence returns
Now visions are shown

Red and black
Colors that blind
Shrouding sight

Sight uncovered
Things wished unseen
The damage is done

Now you know
What is worse to lose?
Your sight or your voice?
