It's difficult to see through tears.
I would know.

I want to be higher than the clouds, lost in a dream of white haze
For days and days and day and days
Take me to the city in the sky
And I'll never come down, I won't even try
Escaping has never seemed to fail me
Sure, it's caused some problems, but only due to instability
I'm buying a ticket for the next train out of here
I am done constantly living in fear
A place to get lost, a place to be free
A place in the clouds, a place just for me
I am leaving now, I am leaving
Please, no one try and stop me
Goodbye, goodbye, I say to you, goodbye
You might never see me again, I won’t deny
But for now, goodbye

Staring blankly out the window
Lost in contemplation
And observation
Sipping casually through a plastic straw
Completely immersed in my racing thoughts
And the shuffling of feet
And the way the shadows lay harshly on the grass and cement in the sun

Halfway over
Mid-day
Reflections
Blue silhouettes
Reaching limbs
The hum of existence

A boy riding his bicycle
A girl walking along the path
I am not here
No one sees me
Existence is plaguing

Where are the clouds?
A breeze kissing my face softly
Touching my hair longingly
I see everything and everyone around me
But they do not see me
I blend in so naturally

Be my safe haven
Heal my burns and cuts from past lovers and then kiss all the scars
Hold me town and hold me tight
Don't allow me to wander away from you
Show me that your love won't turn into more burns and cuts and scars
Show me that I am capable of being loved
Be the first person to never abandon me for people love to leave me for reasons I will never understand
Show me that I am worth loving
I promise you won't regret it
I will love you intensely and fully, with my whole heart, my entire body, my complete soul
I will treat you like you are the only thing I've ever wanted, ever needed
****** my mind and you can have my body
Surrender yourself to me

I am a compilation of skin, bones, and sadness
And I go looking for love in all the wrong places
I am really that desperate
And lonely
Looking for anything and anyone that can be disguised as love
If even for a short while
Because I have all of this love to give
And all of this emptiness inside of me
Just waiting to be filled
It thirsts for love
But I have no one to give all of this love to
No one to share all of this love with
So it is smothered with even more loneliness
And even more emptiness
Until sadness is all that I am
