Aside from your perfection
Lays the depth perception
Of the simple question,
will it ever be enough?
When you hear my crying
You pretend I'm lying
Can you fabricate the dying,
begging from the rough?
Although it seems you are okay
Of the life deemed yesterday
So as I simply asked before,
No, it will never be enough

Breathless
Infectious, smile
Into the reckless
Begging on hands
Knees that I stand
Demand
Slowly breaking
Helpless, forsaken
Only yours,
for the taking
Simply let it be

Instigating stages
Memory of faces
Crowding senses
Worn out defences
Silence lasting
Wave lines crashing
Hopelessly begging
Never ending
In this broken dream

Love will slowly creep upon you
Without a determined goal in mind
It will suffocate your every thought
Drowning in emotion with time

An object
but once a subject
Some sort of seeker
Holding dear
The keeper
In the clear
Left in fear
Only headed deeper

Other than today
With nothing to say
Maybe I'll remember
Specifics put away
I'll be upon the lesson
Skip over depression,
             aggression,
            obsession
.. if I may.

Regaining composure
Finding the closure
All for the better
... someday

I heard the gun shot, so I started to run
But soon I forgot, where I had begun
I reached for my savior, all that I've known
Saw I was followed and the shadows had grown
Despair, the creator, of all that I see
Confusion has captured, what's left to be
Remnants are nothing but an impossible dream
Havoc is present, with no in between
I turned back in habit, to see what I'd done
I quickly remembered why I started to run
