Crouching demon on my bed
Flouting reason, bringing dread
Crouching demon of yesterday's me
Vouching freedom for shamed crazy
If you had eyes they'd surely shine
But to some surprise I merely find
Instead of sections of fear and fire
A gaunt reflection of my reared desire
Crouching demon, don't choose me
I fling freedom at a bruise I call envy
Can you see it coming
Sprouting through the buried soil
From the seed you unknowingly sow

Can you catch it as it grow
Spreading tender leaves green
Feeding on your sinister thoughts

Can you nip it off, can you?
before the sapling gains ground
Jealousy... Spreading its roots
Bile creeps. No warning.
Green tastes bitter. Never sweet.
Swallow it. Don't speak.
You may not realize this now
But you and I were once the same
We were both unfaithful and both unhappy
And we both turned a little insane.

We both tried to fix each other
And then we tried to fix us
We both were so passionate about each other
And we both lost each other's trust.

You and I were the same person,
It's just that our timing was off..
You and I are incredible individuals
But together we are lost.

Together we are two different storms
One tornado and one hurricane
Tearing apart one another
Leaving each other in broken remains.

Our love was never true
It was always forceful and jealous
Our passion, as it grew
Our lives became more hellish..

I am sad now that I know it's over
But I know that this is best
I hope we both take away something good from this
And put true love to the test.
I notice everything.
And by everything,
I literally mean everything.
I notice when someone stops hitting me up
like they used to.
I notice when the way someone
talks to me starts changing.
I notice the little things that people do,
and the little things they used to do.
I notice when things change,
and when it’s no longer the same.
I notice every single little detail.
I just don’t say anything.
I'm not that different I'm just depressed
I miss him
and I'm sad, ok?

i need a repent,
to erase all my sins,
i just can't get over you,
i just can not shake this feeling,
if you feel its over due,
i don't need anybody's help,
to conquer all my demons,
i could scream and yell,
it won't do anything for a reason,
did you even notice?
doesn't mean you cut your loses
and get out of dodge,
these problems are bitter sweet,
of course,
what about that thing you made on the blog,
somewhere theres a limited amount of time,
to fight a good rebellion,
if your seldom,
then your lying,
or the automobile you want to drive,
but you can't have,
in the sea of selfishness,
you dive,
but you had,
so much on your plate,
and many people in your life,
maybe this is the wrong place,
up and away,
you feel like you can fly,
did you even notice?
green screens,
and the darkest abyss,
alter the fabric of reality,
by the power of one fist,
like an anniversary,
of carrying out evil plans,
i fight with all your memories,
we've been through a lot of rules,
and demands,
again with the fabric of reality thing,
don't let your illusions get the best of you,
but in the mist of actuality,
will lead you to perfect virtue,
misery loves company very much,
been married for thousands of years,
you could have been super dynamo,
leave you unorthodox,
or you can escape your fears,
did you even notice?

What is Heaven?

What is Hell?

If I told you, would you tell?

If you love,

If you hate,

Determined is your fate,

If you're perfect,

If you're sinful,

If you're too broken to even notice,

All these people trying to help you,

To get to Heaven,

Or to Hell,

Then you'll ask:

What IS Heaven,

And what is Hell?
You and I will have no end
because there never was a beginning

You fall in love like it's some trend
because you're looking for the one like me

I am helping you get on the mend
because she will never know you like I do

I am the one on who you can depend
because we're as thick as thieves, forever

I am doing a backwards bend
because I need you to notice I want more

You have the gall to call me friend
because you can't see I'm falling for you

You are looking for someone new to apprehend
I'll keep waiting, trying to pretend
