AND AS I FELL INTO BED WITH YOU
THE COTTEN SHEETS COSUMING ME AS I HIT THE MASSTRESS
I COULD ONLY FEEL BUTTERFLIES
THAT SCATTERED AROUND MY STOMACH
LIKE WHEN YOU LEAN BACK INTO A FIELD OF GREEN
AND MAKE ANGELS IN THE SUMMER GRASS
THE SUN KISSING MY SKIN SOFTLY

BUT NOT AS SOFT AS YOU
NEVER AS SOFT AS YOU

You were the one
That told me
Don't be so
*******
Apathetic

And you told me
Don't be oblivious

Don't be an empty person

With no face

You told
Me

That because I do not show it

Because I don't know how to show it

That I am empty

Mr apathy

Mr I don't care

Mr I can't care

And I tried as hard as I could

To be what you thought I needed to be

I felt so ******* bad about myself, you know?

I'm not

The person

That people

Will love

I am not

The person

That people

Can love

I am not

The person

That

Can love

Oh save me?

I did not need to be saved

I did not need to be saved

I DID NOT NEED TO BE SAVED

Don't take it upon yourself

To be the one that fixes me

When I was never broken

And it took so long for me to see that

After you told me otherwise for so long

I am not broken or empty

*You are
You're still kind of a ****, huh

QUIETLY
THEY CREPT
INTO HIS ROOM
AND THEY CLIMBED
ONTO HIS BED AND THEY
STUCK WOODEN PINS INTO
HIS SKIN AND THEN DOUSED HIM
IN GASOLINE AND THEY TOOK A LIGHTER
AND LIT HIM UP LIKE CANDLES ON A BIRTHDAY
CAKE WHILE HE SLEPT WITH NO IDEA HE WAS BURNING ALIVE

HE'LL TRIP YOU UP AND YOU'LL FALL DOWN THE STAIRCASE AND WHEN YOU REACH THE BOTTOM HE'LL HUG YOU AND KISS YOUR BRUISES AND CALL AN AMBULANCE FOR YOU AND PRETEND THAT HURTING YOU WAS NEVER HIS INTENTION BUT IT'S HARD TO BELIEVE THAT WHEN HE HAS DONE THIS SO MANY TIMES BEFORE

I don’t believe anything to be true-
That’s just a fault of mine
So naturally, I would question this
Of course I would,
I can’t take anything for face value

That being said..
Do you really?

Is this real or just superficial?

Is this because you want me
Or because you simply want?

I don’t mean offence

I honestly don’t

This is not a critique on your character,
It isn’t
This isn’t about you and it’s not about us
It’s just me
It’s just

Good things don’t happen

Good things don’t happen

Good things don’t happen

So forgive me when I ask..

IT MAKES ME UNEASY TO REALISE I AM JUST LIKE YOU
AND THE WAY I CAN'T SEPERATE YOUR FACE FROM MY OWN MAKES ME AFRAID THAT ONE DAY
I'LL TURN ON THE NEWS AND SEE MYSELF IN THE PLACE OF YOU
AND I'LL SEE MY FACE CAPTIONED WITH THE SAME WORDS

She was not a good photographer

Somehow she found a way to make the entire world around her ugly

I hope you're telling the truth,
I really do

But I can't think about anything else

why am I any different?

I can enjoy it while it lasts, sure

but all in all

what am I?

Am I anything more

than another tree

in your forest of dark things?

IF IT IS DEAD
BURY IT

I DON'T CARE TO SEE YOU
PARADING CORPSES AT COCKTAIL PARTIES

THESE THOUGHTS JUST DON'T LINK UP
A MESS OF EMOTION LOST
IN THE ROUGH TRANSLATION OF POETRY

I CAN LOOK A KILLER IN THE EYES AND TELL YOU THAT I DON'T BELIEVE IN EVIL BUT SOMETIMES WHEN I LOOK INTO THE REDDISH BATHWATER AND SEE YOUR REFLECTION STARING BACK AT ME I SERIOUSLY QUESTION MY JUDGEMENT

I SAW THE PAINTINGS OF A GREAT BEAST AND I THOUGHT NOTHING OF IT- THEY MUST HAVE BEEN MAKING YOU OUT TO BE A MONSTER THAT YOU SIMPLY AREN'T, RIGHT?

ALAS, WITH A CLEAR HEAD I SEE THAT THE PAINTINGS WERE THE ONLY TRUE REFLECTION OF YOU THAT YOU EVER SHOWED ME BEFORE THIS MOMENT

I'M ON THE OTHER SIDE OF YOU NOW AND MY ONCE BLIND EYES SEE YOU FOR WHAT YOU TRULY WERE ALL ALONG

A MONSTEROUS BEAST THAT I ONCE CALLED 'FRIEND' STANDS BEFORE ME

I FOUGHT ******* MY MISGUIDED QUEST,
GOOD GOD I FOUGHT SO HARD

WHAT A SHAME THAT A BOY BLINDED BY NAIVETY ENDED UP DESTROYING EVERYTHING HE HAD THOUGHT HE WAS SAVING

I FELT EMPTY AND NUMB WHEN ALL MY FOES HAD FALLEN TO THE GROUND
****** AND DEAD

IS THAT HOW A HERO IS SUPPOSED TO FEEL?
