Why did I say that thing just now And how do i manage to sound so proud around the people i want to impress Im sure they can tell im just a little too loud I talk a little too fast Is it anxiety or mania that makes me act like that? And why wont he respond? Wait, which he am i on? My hope for a lover shot down on the daily But still i manage to feel ok when im not focused on waiting Entertaining myself in other ways Playing with words Word salad, tossed in a ballad, tossed salad Oops, did i say that? Donno what im playing at Dont mind me Im finding it hard to wind down If i run, my problems wont find me Staring at the sun prolly wont blind me If i pretend to be fine now Will my demons remind me? I just wanna share my poetry with someone that thinks like me Whos likeminded, inspired, desires to climb higher If knowledge is fire Then my mind is a lighter But my soul keeps tripping over her own shadow Boxing with my demons in the shallows Maybe today I let them win On the Eve of All Hallows, the winner is sin
