Today's a day that is a day but isn't the day you see
Today is a day that isn't the day
a day that isn't for me
Olivia A Keaton Nov 2019
Hold me like only you know how.
Save me from myself and from the things around me.
Keep me warm when everything and everyone is bitter and cold.
Embrace me with your strong, safe arms.
Give me one of your famous (but only for me) bear hugs,
Honey Bear.

today is a day
that the sky swallows me whole
and thunder bellows like the screaming in my soul.
today is a day that
it's a bit too cold,
that the wind bites too hard
and my feelings unfold.

today is the day
that the rain falls
because my tears can't,
the lightning strikes
because I cannot react,
and the thunder rolls
because I cannot scream.

Today is the day that my metaphorical storm consumes me and takes all of the energy that I have, to better itself.

I hope you've been taught
1+1 is 2
but I noticed something today that made me think of you.
We always see the angles, not for what they are,
but better yet we look inside them to identify them.
Why can't we look into each other's souls
to really see who we are
instead of judging everyone by the outside?

But why would I care about this Will that's not about death?
What did he do?
Pick oranges, anyways?

Maybe I'm a demon,
maybe you don't understand
red's a pretty color
blood from my hand.

Maybe I'm the devil
this "sweet" is just a phase.
Maybe I'm evil.
Can't you see it in my face?
