I cry inside because you have no idea how much your life is worth.
And everytime  I see that smile,
That smile you put on just for the pleasure of people.
But inside I see more,
I see the pain, the battle raging inside.
The battle you've tried so hard to win, but in reality you've given up.

But oh how I wish I could say something that would just turn your mentality and make you realize how special you are.
Your heart is a well just ready to be filled with life.
Why don't you let the one who provides the water fill you up?
Because oh, how much promise you show.
The potential  you have is overwhelming.

Please, please don't give up.

Because dear, you believe lies.
You've been lied to and most importantly you lie to yourself claiming that you don't care.
When we all know  you're an empty galaxy just waiting to be filled with stars that illuminate the love you wish to bear.
Please stay in this world.
You are loved.
For all those fighting for a reason to live, there is hope.
Tonight the lane
Will be flooded
With blood
And shadows
The ongoing rituals
And other paraphernalia
The squad will deny
But conquer
Every soul engaging in
Increasing the baggage
Of our cognisant minds
I'll try to ameliorate
The functionality
By passing on placards
With the truth imprinted
On every edge
While poets will continue to tell lies.
Inward smiling as the thought just returned
Remembering the shame as advances were spurned
Still going red at the thought's recollect
No romance that time, another chance wrecked.

Ah adolescence and all the things new
The callowness is borne like a fedora askew
The so spotty face that we tried hard to hide
By growing our side-burns enormously wide.

And now decades later and still happy in love
With the woman who always fits me like a glove
Those teenage angst years are now way in the past
But we have to go through them for the now things to last.

To be loved for decades is a wondrous thing
My heart wakes each morning and just starts to sing
For my love lies beside me as we welcome the day
In my heart I now realise it was always this way.

Oh please

Set me free

If you

Don't need me

And

Stop that nonsense

Don't

Friendzone me
A ****** serenade to show me all your witches.
The lie that bites my eye and pulls apart the stitches.
Shes like a ****** gun half cocked on a loaded nun.
A feral infant left the instant she could see the sun.

While god herself grins in the face of my stability.
Woke up alone crying "where the hells Felicity?"
I'm just a fender-****** pretender makin the same mistakes.
Her music shakes and rattles snakes right between my legs.

We filled the mind so bloated as we floated feelin omnipotent.
The silent rhyme that stopped time and left the world corroded.
I had to cough and shake it off before we qualify to multiply.
Traded a moth for sloth but got caught by a butterfly.

Her heart beating, got me feeding and it stops the bleeding.
Deep throated, dually-noted as I start believing.
