It's like my heart has shut itself down
And barred all the doors
Because it's given too much

l.v.s
this was inspired by a song I really like at the moment: Oceans by Jacob Lee https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M_UbguGSJBo the version with spoken word is much better than the original

I've encountered massive mountains
Along the way
Thought things would fall apart

It smooths out for a bit
Then gets bumpy again

The best we can do is try
To find a little bit of light
In this life.

l.v.s

I beg you, please
Out of everything
You could possibly do
Don't hold back
What's important
To you

Yes, I know
There are times where
You don't feel safe
Or heard
Or accepted
Or maybe
You're scared

This world is tough
People are cold and stubborn
Sometimes you feel alone

But I have been starving
For just a hint
Of honesty and self-expression
And I bet I'm not the only one

So please,
If you have someone close
Someone comfortable
Someone there
Share your truth

Conversations
Can be
Composed of
Lifeless
Letters

It's far less vulnerable
To show a pale scar

Than it is to expose
To another
Your bloodied self

My cat smooched me
Resulting in
An idea

I should copy him
And let go
Of loose ends

Watch them fall
Upon the ground
Never to be
Found
Again

l.v.s
Just a random thought, he's letting go of a lot of things and I should too.

I've met people I didn't think were human
and I've broken the human in me trying to figure them out
