tomorrow seems so distant
but the sky above our
heads is blue
and although my
flesh may not
be the same shade
that's the way
i'm feeling too,
pale knees bruised
by past transgressions
band-aids slowly
peel off from the skin
and even my bed isn't
a safe place to sleep
when i'm standing
in the face of
self destruction

Lay down on the floor
and wondered, is this as low as
I can go. Then, I
took a hit or two cause
it cannot get any worse.

There are some people who will hate you because of the way other people love you. They're the type of people that will be your friend as long as you're never doing better than them, you're always doing less than them, as long as they're always slightly higher than you in every aspect.

....like
            drugs        
                       left us
                                 chasing
                                            first highs.

Why does this woman have such a pull on me
She can hurt me
Deceive me and I still won’t leave
Built strong like a tree
But brittle like a fallen leaf
At least to her anyway
If it were anyone else
I wouldn’t pay no mind
But why is it her
Is her love hard to find ?
Not given to everyone
And given in full
I broke my rules for her
Am I the fool ?
For going back to something
That considers me a tool

my heart’s so fragile;
i’m afraid to give it away,

all that’s left of me is
a sarcastic personality,
and even that is
starting to fade.
