Everything

The madness
The screaming
The monsters
The demons
The darkness
The nothingness
The dilemmas
The choices
The realities
The problems

Locked
Away
Behind a tall
Gate

The key?
It's been thrown
Away
Steps to find the right person:

Step one
Lock gate

Step two
Throw key

Step three
Sit and wait

In the chaos and destruction
Run Jul 2013
I'm not an idiot
I do have
Common sense
Too
I did
I do
I will

Although it's kinda empty
It's still
There
Run Jul 2013
But you can't hide


And I guess that's why
I run.
Run Jul 2013
What will
Happen

When I start
Living
For myself

Again?
Vanished ages ago, surviving off pure will. Do I want to stand up and walk that lonely road again? "Two roads diverge in a yellow wood"
And that will make all the difference.

Will I stand, or will I collapse?
Will I fly, or will I fall?
Will I laugh, or will I cry?
Will I mend, or will I crack?

But one thing's for sure
Nothing will ever be the same
Again
Run Jul 2013
I see no point
In living
All the troubles
Don’t you see?
Are all caused
By human kind

All the choices
All the suffering
All the wars
All the hunger
All the
Problems

Psychopaths?
Their made from their
Past
Abused
Neglected
Deprived

Retired soldiers
Waking up from
Gory scenes
Of war
Every night?
Those nightmares
Are caused by
The wars
The strife
The protests
The terrorists

A student’s stress?
Expectations
Goals
Standards
Commitments

A breadwinner’s worry?
Money
Income
Maintenance
The next meal

Broken friendships?
Betrayal
Jealousy
Loss of faith
Competition

Therefore
Just dig me
A hole
A deep deep hole
That I can jump into
And vanish
From existence
Entirely

No need to think
No need to worry
No need to decide
No need to go
Crazy
Dealing with
Me
Run Jul 2013
If I can apply it in school,









Why can't I do it at home?
Run Jul 2013
So you want to know
What's going on
Inside

I'll tell you

Kicking
Screaming
Tearing
Punching
Throwing
Lots of thinking
And imagination
Repeating
Over and over

About all kinds of stuff
Mostly reality
You
Them
Everyone
Family
Money
Time
Tasks
Priorities
Comm­itments
Promises
How not to break them

So much going
In so many directions
I feel like I'm being
Torn apart
Wanting to hide
In a hole
Somewhere
Nonexistent

Sure
It is pretty trivial
Compared to what
Everyone else
Is going through
Compared to you
Or you
Or you
Or you

But I'm not anyone
Else
I have my definitions
My standards
My Rights
To what I think

So stop comparing
I. Am. Me.
