Flesh and bone
Opinions never to be heard
Quiet voice
Help?

Peace lost
Terror ensues
Chaotic thoughts
Don't speak

Throw away emotions
Wrong place wrong time
We tell you what to be
Who are you?

This is a race
You are sure to lose
Stay in line

Joshua Helmuth Mar 2012
I don't expect to be forgiven
I don't deserve it
I'm a failure
Denounced
I brought all of this on myself
I am the only one to blame
I've hit rock bottom
I dig outwards
It's war between me, myself and I
No one wins theses battles
They give up too soon
Cowards
The redemption I seek is gone
I have only words now
There's nothing more
Nothing
Joshua Helmuth Dec 2011
When the rain falls
Some frolic, some flee
The rhythm of the rain
Sinks deep into me

It whispers to me
"I am never adored"
I look it in the eye
And see beauty ignored

The way it cries
Is both soothing and sad
But when it's all over
You forget what you had
Joshua Helmuth Dec 2011
What is it like
Inside your head
Behind your jaded smile?
Hollowed out
Of personal belief
Do you really give a ****?
Egocentric
Sadistic narcissist
How far can and will you go?
Every last thing
That I love and believe
Why must you tear it down?
Joshua Helmuth Dec 2011
What's visible is seen
Obvious
But out in the open
Cellophane
Are the opinions heard
Comedy
But is it even there
Concealed
Carefully perched behind
Disheartened
Ethereal being's
Reflection

— The End —
