I prefer classical music On days when I'm feeling numb The exquisiteness of it all Breathes fire into my soul Slowly bringing me back From an unending abyss Until I feel almost human again There are times When I seem to be consumed By an utter sadness That not even I can write about Should I explain? I like to light cigarettes Only to watch them burn away Gradually turning into bits of ash I miss their taste And it's only then that I realize That I don't drink enough It's another weakness I'm not allowed These days, Pride seems to be my only salvation Or perhaps it's stubbornness A sheer force of will to get through the day Either way, Dreams remain pain filled Life is a constant fight against the bleak And I break mirrors every day Cracking my reflection with ease To fragment this forced smile It's a necessary evil... To hide everything that I feel Because surviving is the only thing that matters To be honest, Happiness is something I can't touch An emotion that I can't quite fathom Though I can't seem to stop trying Every jungle needs a queen I'll be ****** if it isn't me © 2014 Peach
