During this month I was told that My level of intellect was dangerous. It truly makes sense because My speech can't keep up with my thoughts and My wandering daydreams control my nights as I lay still, Begging my mind for rest. I have no patience for my peers Because I read them with confusion and shock, All easily and quickly Like ******, young adult fiction. A boy once told me that my mind was a maze, But he was wrong because There are no dead ends. There is no rest. Every fully dissected thought, every soul crushing emotion Leads to the next. And so, my mind won't let me rest. I will never be at peace. They say intellect is a gift, But it is truly a curse As I grow more restless With each passing hour.
Sick of all these people's gossip Sick of their dim words. Tired of faking love towards those Who only bring me hurt. Now I'm holding in my screams Drowning in this sea of faces. But they just keep looking at me And I'm feeling suddenly graceless. I'm heading straight to the real world. Where they can't keep clawing at me. But there's a friend who is blind and who Won't stop saying that I probably shouldn't be so mean, I'm speaking up against them. Their pretty lies, and their shallow love. And there's a woman who hates me, and won't stop saying I should probably keep my pretty mouth shut. But their world is a fake one. And I simply can't wait and Paint a smile on my angry, cold face.
Always say the words that you should. Even if you think they are already understood, For sadly, hearts are often broken By the simple the words we leave unspoken.
Warm hands outstretched, Hey, are you okay? Welcoming eyes of fire, Please, I'm asking you to stay. And now I realize, that at that first touch, I should have walked away.
When the world is too harsh And cold and just dark. When it feels like a stain On your already burdened heart, When your life feels so empty And your dreams have all gone, When you feel all alone, With nothing left to lean on, Don't forget about me And my love, strong and pure. I promise to hold you, At peace, but aware. Aware of your pain And sorrow and strife. And you won't forget About my love in your life.
1, 2, Real life is coming for you. 3, 4, Honey go walk out that door. 5, 6, I'm just so done with this. 7, 8, No, go, it's getting late. 9, 10, I never want to see you again.
