I've got anger issues
And I've just run out of tissues
My tear ducts have gone dry
Brain boils then starts to fry

It's too hot
too loud
You're too slow
Not my crowd

This world is not for me

An apple of a different tree

Finding where will be

The peace of eternal tomorrow

I am resourceful

I will take this thick pain
And mold it
Like clay

I will create a melody
To the pulse in my silent ears

One must live out each day
And find inspiration

In the height of the clouds
Or the depths of the shadows
What will you chose to do with your fuel?
Didn't see it coming,

Struck down to the floor,

But in life you keep on going,

And coming back for more.

I hope the pain I feel
Is the pain I caused you
So you can be free
And love someone true

I'll take it all back
I'll take it from you
Wash every black spot
Leave no clue

Only leave the love we found
Our dormant tree
Stuck in the ground

So that one day we may grow again

Is love the dread
I feel inside?
Thinking of you
Walking in his stride?

This is what you wanted
This is what you chose
You let go of the warmth
Let the sacred door close

And if fate will have it
You'll be side by side
When mountains collapse
Pulled in by the tide

The love that we have
So delicate yet strong
Lives within me
Fuels all day long

Could this be the end?
Will we go separate ways?
Or in time can we mend?
And bask in loves rays
The process of processing
Eric VandenBrink Oct 2016
Reality
Is the checkpoint
Between the end
And start
Of the flow of thought
