Never smother a voice;
for it is the song that comes
from another's lips
that gets stuck in our head.

"GET OVER IT!" She said as if depression can be remedied
by any of the contents found in a first aid kit.

He can't see you,
He does not see the look in your eyes
when you see the person you love.

He does not see you turn flushed to ghost like
when you hear bad news.

He does not see the smile you give,
when you are at your happiest.

But he can feel your darkest moments,
and most joyous memories....

Don't mistake eyes for hands.

I knew what I was in for when I said yes,
But despite my wisdom I still said yes
it was like touching an iron to see if it's hot
even though you know,
you will burn yourself.

Sometimes people hate you for the way,
others love you.

It's not about being wide awake thus getting no sleep.
It's about being so tired, that your body
shuts down but your thoughts don't
It doesn't feel like you just drank a cup of coffee
and you can't keep your eyes closed
It feels like you haven't had your cup yet.
