I’d be lying if I said I didn’t miss when my days were so low
The only attachment I have with those moments is when you come and go
My agony my overwhelming tendencies to rethink and overthink
And my screen then glows your name to bring me from the brink
Of my own destruction
And then I backtrack and face facts
Cause you may only want me for seduction
But all the times you eased the torment oozing from my body
At times I wonder if you had a clue or if you looked at me odly
One day I was sick of it all
Returning to a place where it seems all problems could be solved
You needed something I’d never hesitate to give
But you noticed a switch in aura maybe you sensed the low willingness to live
Either way I sat
With my red beats and a raging mind at that
A few hours past and my phone glowed.. once more
As if you could top the days seething roar
And I slide to the right
You shine like the moon in the pitch black of night
To open your mouth and ask if I’m alright
If I had plans tonight
And you seemed kinda sad Imma scoop you hang tight
The ride filled me with jitters
With my mind racing a mile a minute but refused to be a quitter
But I notice that your care to let me sit while my thoughts flow like rivers
And then begin to talk to ease the mind of the sinner
Your voice sweet and smooth
Like the string of a violin or the feeling of blues
In a single night
You took out every thought memory and demon I planned to fight
With songs and conversations
With closeness removing my hesitation
I’m getting closer and closer
All with the same fear she’ll knock my heart over
Still you’ll never know what you meant to me
And I’ll never know what we meant to be
I get frustrated with the content of my writing but then I realize that it helps me release let go and get over what my mind tries to keep circulating in my head . I have moments where I feel like I’ll never get over it and moments where I don’t even care cause what’s the point to. Constantly shifting through highs and lows it’s agony.. but what happy writer do you know ?.. better yet what happy artist you know ?
