Imagine if instead of counting up,
We counted down.

We counted down, were
Issued a number of days.

And it would start in the thousands,
Until one day you noticed.

It was in the hundreds,
Where have the days gone?

You thought you had so many;
Now there's only one.

if i squint hard enough
i can just see the line
that exists in between
your opinion and mine.

had i let it connect
or just wished it away
i wouldn't have said
what i wanted to say.

when two worlds collide
in a flash of regret
it's best to take heed
it's best to forget.
All love ask?
Is to be love?
All a heart seeks.
Is to be adored.

Giving is a feeling that someone in love seeks in return.
Just like the warmth of the sun warm us.
We want someone to want us.

All a person in love ask?
Is to be needed?
For anyone that feels they can make it without love.
Must not be able to admit how wrong they are?

After all, it was created by God

When the mirror shatters,
What you reflect to society,
No longer matters,
Because the construction one,
Has built upon themselves,  
Is now on the floor,
Cracked into pieces of shattered fragments,
And now what you were then is now no more,
Now the only piece you have left,
Is the peace in your soul.

What I am to you
New me, think of
A me that is
The doubt keeps me awake and makes
the nicks where I shaved my face
smart like
cirrus clouds
New me
I'll ignore you

What I am to you
Old me
Cough syrup
Heavy and pathalogical
Social

New me: think of
A fresh scalpel
Sterile and ready
To use to do
the ***** work
For the next you

And now the
Sweetest voice
Is a whisper of an echo
Of a memory.
And pictures fade,
Muted colours of shame.
And the mind
Plays ***** tricks.
And the heart
Drowns in silent tears.

Frustration
The sudden feeling
You get
When the reason
Behind it is

Disappointment
When expectations
You've had
Were a fantasy

Nothing makes you happy.
Why?
Because nothing makes you happy.

That is depression.
