Q
I Am Madness

Q
Lurking in the shadows
In which you hide your pain
Wrapped around the parts
Of yourself that cause you shame

I am Madness
I am insanity
I am all of you
And you are part of me
you're calm
or so it seems
because if the eyes are the keys to the soul
your eyes are merely keys
to doors that lead to a much more elaborate maze
of thoughts and feelings
that I cannot even fathom
like the stars in the sky making constellations
that more resemble webs than images
your thoughts connect making grander ideas
that I can only imagine will be the start
of our generation of geniuses
whether you take that because of your IQ
or because of your craftsmanship that can one day change lives

Sitting alone all day
Wishing my self away
Watching the day and night go by faster than the speed of light

As ι notice my scars are faded
And ι realise ι made it
Being all alone like a castaway lost at sea
ι felt like ι'м not loved
ι let myself lose control .
Everything comes before me ,
Everyone besides me
Always left out .
Looking in from the outside

ι began to see the light at the end of the
tunnel
ι get rid of all my doubt
By drowning my self in
Unnecessary guilt

So ι cry just a little ,
Than ι dry my eyes .
Cause ι'м no longer a little girl anymore

So now ι'м fully alive .
As ι watch all my complaints shrink to nothing
And ι lie there afraid of all my somethings .
Afraid of the past
As much as my future

But this is wheRe it all ends
ι always dreamt about this moment
Waiting to feel loved instead of hurt

Fell to pieces and picking them up on my own
Anxiety's got me shaking
Faking what's real
Torn to the bone
A heart harder than stone

Here is a glass of water from my well.
It tastes of rock and root and earth and rain;
It is the best I have, my only spell,
And it is cold, and better than champagne.
Perhaps someone will pass this house one day
To drink, and be restored, and go his way,
Someone in dark confusion as I was
When I drank down cold water in a glass,
Drank a transparent health to keep me sane,
After the bitter mood had gone again.
Tides are turning, i am learning, not to trust in anyone.
They are lying, no denying, Russian Roulette with a gun.
It's enough that, you regret that, you ever took a chance on me.
And now i'm trying, to stop crying, so that you can be happy.
I wish i could have, wish i would have, tried a little harder.
With every day, you step away, i can see you growing farther.
Days are older, nights are colder, without you in my life.
I just miss you, want to kiss you, regardless of the strife.
Tides are turning, i am learning, not to trust in anyone.
They are lying, no denying, Russian Roulette with a gun.
Lungs are burning, speech is slurring, attempting to forget.
Heart is pounding, feels like drowning, in too deep to quit.
My head is spinning, no one is winning, what is the point in this?
They all saw it, we never caught it, this was the biggest twist.
My heart was beaming, now it's screaming, through every night and day.
Don't try talking, just keep walking, there's nothing left to say.
Tides are turning, i am learning, not to trust in anyone.
They are lying, no denying, Russian Roulette with a gun.
