By day I am a smile and a laugh
Hair flipping, brightly chirping
By day I am the girl with makeshift answers
Good girl, everyone's shoulder to cry on
By night I am bleach and blades
Thoughts that pound their way finally out
By night I am angry and violent and sharp
Breathing in and out toxic waste I've bottled
I'm sorry when day and night blur
And during the day I come out
From my shell to burn
Not only my skin but yours too
Hair flipping, brightly chirping
By day I am the girl with makeshift answers
Good girl, everyone's shoulder to cry on
By night I am bleach and blades
Thoughts that pound their way finally out
By night I am angry and violent and sharp
Breathing in and out toxic waste I've bottled
I'm sorry when day and night blur
And during the day I come out
From my shell to burn
Not only my skin but yours too
I'm sorry when the darkness that clouds my head leaks out to cast shadows on you. If I had it my way I would stay black inside my internal room. Or stay just some random poet on the internet no one knows, not really. I just need to stay quieter.
