When you're down and you're emotionally weak
Remind yourself that there's beauty in every beast
You don't have to be taken down or beaten by defeat
It's inside yourself- the capability to rise to your feet
I try to remind myself every night before I sleep

Sometimes it doesn't work; sometimes I still weap
It's hard to fight the stinging when, into the heart, it creeps
It can be so intense you may feel your world freeze
Still, don't let your legs buckle; don't fall to your knees
Your will is more powerful- this I truly believe

It's unwise to depend on others to provide your relief
Greed is abundant; I feel that's plain to see
You must begin to love yourself to actually be free
Discover a method to let your inner emotions breathe
And grant yourself freedom to let your soul speak

Things may be hard; yes, life may seem bleak
Just understand that there's beauty in every beast
Don't doubt that, in every human, there is magnificent strength
Take flight- let the struggles grace you with elegant wings
Undoubtedly, *there's beauty in every beast

Have you ever felt a feeling you have no business feeling?
It got your head spinning and your mind reeling?

Have you ever watched your story fall apart
Poem after poem?
And every poem crumble
Word after word?
And every word get dismembered
Letter after letter?

Have  you ever laid for hours just staring at your ceiling?
Pit in your gut because of the **** you're finally realizing?

Have you ever watched your circle fall apart
Person after person?
And every person crumble
Tear after tear?
And see every tear get devalued
Lie after lie?

Have you ever woken up to realize you have no use for your eyes
Because, after all that you've seen, you've remained blind?

I fell in love
I fell for you
You had walls
I tried to break through
I'd give you my all
I told you the truth
But in the end
It wasn't enough for you

Words unspoken..
Torn emotions..
I'd run away with you..

But you've chosen..
You've spoken..
I'm not enough for you..


I lost it all
I fall apart
You'll never call
I've sold my own heart
Denied my eyes
Saw a work of art
Now in the end
Shouldn't have let it start

Words unspoken..
Torn emotions..
I broke my walls for you..

But you've chosen..
Yes, you've spoken..
And I'm not enough for you

I could love you and hold you close
Make magic out of these memories
You wouldn't deny my offered dose
Or make a mess of my mental faculties

Dismay in the fact that you don't exist
Perhaps we haven't met yet
All these unfelt feelings that I've expressed
Perhaps we haven't met yet

I should put more merit behind youth
More merit behind these anomalies
To others in this world, we'd remain aloof
And to the stress that accompanies

It's out there; I know you exist
We probably haven't met yet
All the unfelt feelings that I've expressed
We probably haven't met yet

Past flames on which I've burnt myself
We're not fireproof or flame retardant
Flings condensed to pages idling on my shelves
Feelings like prisons from which we're pardoned

Wondering aimless; we both exist
We just haven't met yet
Unfelt feelings that'll be expressed
We just haven't met yet

Feeling less lonely when feeling together
Being held close and not by empty arms
Text me; call me doll whenever
I'll protect you from any harm

I think I'll love you; I know you exist
*We just haven't met yet

The side of the bed on which you used to lay
Is the spot that, lately, I've chosen to stay

Embracing a body pillow to cope with being lonely
And the knowledge that you simply don't want me

The side of my bed on which you used to lay
Is a place I couldn't stand to see another stay

Those songs now only remind me I'm alone
So I deleted them; SoundCloud is gone

The side of the bed on which you used to lay
Is where I've been these past few days
Still, I chase others away
On your side, I think I'll stay

I'll invite you to occupy my mind
I'll do my best to never waste your time
As long as you promise not to waste mine

I want to erase you, leave you in the past..

Ignoring your voice, I'll delete those music apps..

I can't help but feel that, in feelings, I've been trapped..

How am I doing..something you would never ask..

Accepting the rejection at long, long last..

Hopefully, you'll get lost in the shadows that I cast..
