I don't feel like being poetic but I feel the need to write Like shades and tints we're dark and light I'm trying to shine while attempting to hide This feeling is draining me Trading my ups for downs and shoving me under It's exhausting down here Not that fighting for air but clearly suffocating Can you hear me Implied punctuations that are rarely displayed I'd rather stop and go then direct So inhale, exhale I'm running out of things to tell you Bare with me This is ****** at its finest Stripping away my attempts at acceptance I wish my arms were long enough to reach Every now and again I notice there's a lot here about me I wonder if this sheet is too trasparent Suddenly realizing I'm always running Maybe we can go for a jog I guess this is more poetic I had to write something before these words caught me Playing hang man with my keyboard I'm so tired . . .
