he replied
your birthday is this week
how do you feel

honestly
it'll be another day
it's another year
one number added to another
one more second to waste
the sun will come up
the moon will shine
I don't see why
pretend that
everything seems fine

It really doesn't matter right

I'm all dressed up
hair messed up
lipstick fading

strangers in my home
I never remember meeting

I never agreed to this absurd birthday party

all I wanted was to be left alone
in bed
tonight go stargazing

I feel like they're all using me

I love the big teddy bear you bought me
even though I'm too old for it

blooming in this cold winter
your still the prettiest flower

I think your the only human I love
I tried smiling in videos
so you would smile

I know you'll always grow
each season coming up

your the garden of Eden
in the form of human

It's so easy
to ignore you
whenever you're not around

pretending
I'm not awake

couldn't you see me
smiling into the pillow

I can't hear you well
anymore

eating people's emotions
settling deep in my stomach

I don't have any for myself

a hopeless mindset

I guess our hearts don't work the same

My memories are pounding
On the walls of my brain
Telling me they want to live once again
I'm sad to inform them
They're stuck in the past
will die
With my last breath of life

I could never pick a moment
To live in forever

It depends on the weather

give her your smile
it'll take me a while
to see you with someone else

couldn't be more thankful
give me just a moment
to see you go home with someone else

you were my parachute
when I would fall from
outer space

I'm still standing
hope I fall into the ocean

I felt like sleeping on the floor
forget about all the dirt that lays under

tomorrow is the future
today is our reality

I worry about next year
halfway through November

it's cold
a nightmare
appears in my dreams
why didn't I know

am I thankful
for what life has given me

no no
not really

I'm a bit sorry

no no
not really

everyone is so dull
so I lose my mind
somewhere down the line

I know how these ungrateful beings work
the way they use kind people
as puppets
they have not felt guilt

I know how they sleep
the way they smile and laugh like
they haven't hurt
and destroyed hearts

I know
they don't have their own
