Nevermind Mar 2017
I peel the skin away from my bones
Blood on my fingers, the smell in my nose
You trace the ribs and it feels like home
A feeling I've never ever known
I bite off my fingers and wrap them in lace
Your eyes are rotting out of your face
Your hair has fallen like autumn leaves
But now you're most beautiful, at least to me
If you break a bone I'll mend it back
I'll press my fingers to your skull when you're sad
And when you begin to fall apart
I'll put you back together from the start
Nevermind Mar 2017
When I cry myself to sleep
I think of you, beneath white sheets
Sleeping soundly, completely at peace
My heart is pounding whilst adrift on a dream
I lie here dying it's so hard to breath
There's so many things you wouldn't believe
The summer flowers are soaked in rain
You've found cover while I'm drenched in pain
The whitish scars they spell your name
Killing time and hopping trains
I remember the land that used to roll
And all the fields we used to roam
The watercolor bruises, running from home
Fleeing from the hurt with no where to go
Nevermind Mar 2017
I can't feel my lips
Like they don't even exist
Eyelashes kiss my cheeks
Fluttering little lids
I feel warm and comfy
Like I did when we were kids
I'm addicted to the feeling
I wish it was always like this
When I'm not up I'm down
Like six feed underground
When I'm up I'm through the clouds
Ignoring everyone around
So absorbed in my own mind
Thoughts are tightropes strung in lines
I know the feeling will fade in time
But I feel the glow, warm and bright
I'm just so ******* pretentious
I just wanted to catch your interest
But you're just so hard to impress
You outshine me like an empress
I'll always be second to you
But one day you're gonna feel it too
One day I'll be the end of you
And no one will ever remember you
I hope you feel like a ******* fool
I hope someone uses you like a tool
I hope you fall into endless despair
Cause when you do I'll never be there
Nevermind Mar 2017
Sometimes it's hard to understand
The sacred fragility of this land
It is far beyond the hands of man
Spilling through fingers eternally like sand
The oceans kiss the blushing shores
Forever and ever are sunsets to adore
And floating off the horizon's shine
Is a decadent island of filth and grime
On this island no one can survive
But still it stands, lackluster and bright
It's creators turn and shield their eyes
Out of sight is out of mind
Please recycle
Nevermind Mar 2017
Blind in my right eye
Alive in the night time
I wish I was alright
So I say I'm "just fine"
Voices like wind chimes
Caught up in chasing time
I take a hit, it feels sublime
Like summertime sunshine
I won't pretend I'm someone I'm not
I'm just so tired of chasing clocks
Fell asleep and missed my stop
Even now life never stops
Nevermind Mar 2017
I spent my life wishing
That you would come around
Eternally hoping
You'd catch me coming down
***** swirls on porcelain
Round and round and round
I see my own reflection
And you're nowhere to be found
Nevermind Mar 2017
I can live without you
I'll always do what I do
I can't deny I liked you
Your lips were like a haiku
Small, sweet and delightful
When we split they became so spiteful
The words are caught up in my throat
All the words you once wrote
The silent love we never spoke
Disappeared along with the hope
That we could go back to the way things were
*But I'll never be able to get through to her
