Crown Shyness Jul 2019
I’m not happy
I’m not sad
I’m still alive
But I feel dead
"I've heard this is how depression is."
Crown Shyness Jul 2019
I’m wondering in the dark
Trying to find the light
Stuck in the lost
Where there’s no sky
Not a glimmer of hope
On where to find myself
"It's either too dark, or too light. There's no in between."
Crown Shyness Jul 2019
Like knives cutting skin
Bullets digging in
Happiness flowing out
Grief flowing in
Lost in their own world
Hurdling down lower
Past the positive
To the negative
They forgot how to live
"I can't seem to find reason to go on anymore."
Crown Shyness Jul 2019
Surprise, Surprise
I might just die
It seems some of my friends
Have crossed the line
"Some friends are like weather vanes, they can turn quickly."
Crown Shyness Jul 2019
I Found Myself
Deep In the woods behind the house
I found me
Lost in space because of all the gravity
I found I
Bleeding on the floor about to die
"Oh, what has become of myself, of me, of I?"

Nothing will come from this
You say on our bed
Nothing will come from this
I repeat to your head

Dreams mean nothing to me
You say at the table
Dreams mean nothing to me
I repeat as I am able

We’ll all be nothing
You say as we stargaze
We’ll all be nothing
I repeat in a daze

You cover my face
You cover my eyes
You filter my mouth
Now all I tell are lies
"Your voice is so sweet. But are your intentions?"
Crown Shyness Jul 2019
Wishes don’t come true
And I thought you knew that
Reality is harsh
And I want you to know that
Your journey will be harsh
And you will know that
Keep traveling on that path
Because you’re too far
To turn back
"I'm worried you'll grow up and I'm worried you won't. I want to protect you but I can't all the time."
