You won't ever see this
Why would you, you don't like poetry
But I have to get this off my chest
I am deeply madly in love with you.
I have been in love with you for a whole year now
And you don't even know it
Because I'm afraid I will lose you if I tell
I'm afraid we'll stop being friends
That I might ruin this thing
By being deeply madly in love with you
Perhaps one day I'll tell you
Or maybe I won't
But in my heart I will always know
That I am deeply madly in love
How are you?
Are you in love too?
It's wonderful isn't it?
I wish you luck
Can't find it either huh?
When I dream I dream of a place.
A place of great wonder and pleasant surprises.
Where everyone is as perfect as the feeling you get when fitting the final piece of a jigsaw puzzle.
Where there is always peace and quiet and love.
So much love.
An endless, perfect, undying love.
That is the place I dream of.
But when I wake up and reality comes flooding back like when water hits a spoon at too great a speed.
That's when I wish I could go back to sleep.
When I wish the whole world had the same dream as I did tonight.
Then maybe we, humankind, could make reality as a dream.
With love.
Masks are good
They keep the plague contained
They keep it away

Masks hide my face
They conceal my emotions
They keep me away

Masks are bad
They stop me breathing
They keep help away
I want to sing but I don't know the notes
I want to run but I don't have legs
I want to cook but I don't have a recipe
I want to have fun but I don't have friends
I want to live but I don't have the will
I feel like my stomach turned to mush
Like my throat is closing and I can't breathe
I hear ringing in my ears but I hardly hear anything except the voice in my head
Telling me things that frighten me to death
I'm trying to sleep but I can't because the only thing I am capable of doing is trying to stay alive

But it's hard
