May 2016
I guess it was time
That I admitted
That I feel so ******* lost.

Got the day off
I had planned to get lit
I think I did.

You sang, the lights surrounding you
Speaking directly into my soul in moments
That phrase
I don't know
On repeat
You sang it and it resonated with me
Because I don't know either.
And thats why I said to you before I left
"I don't know appears in all of my poetry too."
And I sat next to you outside
My head against the wall
You wore a galaxy shirt
I drank some *** lemonade
Trying to forget all the hurt from the day
The weak
The little things that build up in me
It just
It doesn't all feel worth it just yet.

Transition.
Rebirth.
Can't sleep in late anymore cuz I got everything
Boiling and humming up inside of me
But this path I lead
I don't know where I'm going
I don't know what it looks like
And thats why I can't answer
When people wanna know
I don't know.
Anything anymore.

My soul and my heart is still wounded today
That feeling of it may never recover
I can feel you all crying and hurting in my minds eye
The helplessness sinks into me
But I don't have a choice
I have to carry on
But everything feels like a chore right now.

What do I need?
What will fix that?
How can I pick myself back up?
Happiness is such a tricky thing


Because only we
Only I
Can maintain it.
