Everyone's got their own to nurse Every moment, every day They lament in the verses of their curse Daily... More would be incited to join the fray They want to be seen and heard They want to be consoled From the petty absurd To death's design enrolled Counting on ready ears And arms open wide For me to wipe my tears And be by their side But I too, am living my own I too, bleed my pen dry I too, feel the misfit of my bones I too, have my recurrent days to ply I guess that's just being human Expecting solace through words of grievance We try so feebly to share the weight of burden In the hopes that we'd plot our existence I understand that the urge is great So much so that we tend to forget Others too, have had enough on their own plate On which we pile our leftovers without regret I am still here but.. It's time for some quiet Be all I could be with minimal words said For right now it's not working, this illusion of an outlet Because I still see demons when I lay in bed People can't do much with something so brittle One could stay afloat if he learns to shout I wish I could be more to everyone but I know so little... Of what I feel so much about...

So Little, So Much
Everyone's got their own to nurse Every moment, every day They lament in the verses of their curse Daily... More would be incited to join the fray They want to be seen and heard They want to be consoled From the petty absurd To death's design enrolled Counting on ready ears And arms open wide For me to wipe my tears And be by their side But I too, am living my own I too, bleed my pen dry I too, feel the misfit of my bones I too, have my recurrent days to ply I guess that's just being human Expecting solace through words of grievance We try so feebly to share the weight of burden In the hopes that we'd plot our existence I understand that the urge is great So much so that we tend to forget Others too, have had enough on their own plate On which we pile our leftovers without regret I am still here but.. It's time for some quiet Be all I could be with minimal words said For right now it's not working, this illusion of an outlet Because I still see demons when I lay in bed People can't do much with something so brittle One could stay afloat if he learns to shout I wish I could be more to everyone but I know so little... Of what I feel so much about...
