As of today My life is split in two. There are the calm, uneventful days Of lazy, relaxed words. Then there are the days Where the seven deadly sins, plus a sprinkling of tears Drown me. I struggle to keep my head above the surface To stay alive. Sometimes I am successful Others, the evils hold me down until My heart stops and my lungs are filled with past regrets. I scream silently. The world goes dark All my small truths are overridden by my horrid actions and feelings. My life is being ****** out by the long since faded lies The corset strings of existence are ever so tight now. I am only human. But that is not enough. I now live in my own little sea of desperation.

Halfway Calm Halfway Crazy
As of today My life is split in two. There are the calm, uneventful days Of lazy, relaxed words. Then there are the days Where the seven deadly sins, plus a sprinkling of tears Drown me. I struggle to keep my head above the surface To stay alive. Sometimes I am successful Others, the evils hold me down until My heart stops and my lungs are filled with past regrets. I scream silently. The world goes dark All my small truths are overridden by my horrid actions and feelings. My life is being ****** out by the long since faded lies The corset strings of existence are ever so tight now. I am only human. But that is not enough. I now live in my own little sea of desperation.
