I tried to say I miss you, but this came out instead

I didn't feel so conflicted

till I got in the moment

holdin' strong egos,

like chessin' opponents

who could hold out and show they're the strongest

of love

tryin' to hide they ever felt any

but how could they

when everyone's the enemy

why would I trust you, when I'd do to you,

what you might do to me?

So cat n' mouse chase

won't look ya right in the face

lying to myself that I don't miss the ****** embrace

why even care when its just a race

for that feel good first hit

when it aint found

claimin rights to quit

quit ******* what

life?

ya man I'd be the first to tell ya

I've written a verse

on sacrificing myself for the own good

of the ******* earth

but hands on the shoulders

stopping the ******

from the right to shed skin

they're own contraband

 

n' now its tough

everyone thinks they're the diamond on the ruff

but told true to dwelling in the soul hard n gruff

keepin to the sunrise, lookin to the set

under nights hand guard

everyone's a threat

guns in the temple

consider em mental

for resenting the present social norm

of talking to everything and everyone

just to mold n conform

 

light n dark is a misconception

cuz there's lots of beautiful **** to be let in

by your own definition thas what matters

can't be bothered by other mad hatters perception

give what you need n always be freed

from the chains set in place by societies greedy ****** need

 

and

its all to god **** beautiful

to the human hating anti social

to admit they'd slice the life to their own sacrificial right

not abandoning light but the body gifted to the sight of others

that's what brings the sadness

cuz from the dirt, leaves and trees

is this made up ruling tyranny

madness to take flight n life

is just plain beautiful sadness

I had been at a wedding where my friends were getting married, an old lover was there, which is chill but both of us were awkward with each other, which is ok too. It was actually kinda funny. We have a habit of sending art or free flows to each other, I was sitting outside the venue drinking a beer and smoking when he left on his skateboard, and I vomited this free flow all over some paper.
