Have you ever felt
Something so very intense
You wanted to burst?
Oliver Sep 2018
I’ve got your back
I’m always here
I care for you
And worry too much
I can’t help it
You’re my best friend

I muffle my heart
Fluttering at the thought of you
I keep it to myself
You know, but you don’t have to

I say goodnight every time
But never once a reply
Do you even read them?
I’m trying my best
But it isn’t enough

You know you’re my best friend
And I know I’m not yours
But don’t you worry
My feelings don’t matter
My heart survives the hurt
Still, I’m not giving up
Because I care
And you mean
Too much to me
To lose
Because my heart wants me
to hold on to you.

I want to stop thinking
I want to stop feeling
Stop shrinking
Stop sinking
Stop reeling
Start healing

I can't do this alone
But no one will help me
Progress is slow, so
Come back tomorrow and this is where I'll be

I need to stop falling
I need to stop dying
Stop crawling
Stop stalling
Stop crying
Start trying

Five foot by five foot
Just space enough to stand
Not any decor in sight
The feeling old and bland

The water never cleaned
It seems nobody cares
We try to break the glass
We're not ours, we're theirs.

In his head there's a gun
His body wants to run
But his mind keeps him still
The gun is aimed to ****

He doesn't want to shoot
He's not a willing recruit
The safety's not on
The world is now gone

He's begging to stop
But the barrel won't drop
His voice is getting desperate
His thoughts are never seperate

There's a gun inside his head
Bang! And there he's dead

— The End —
