I have a problem with paranoia





My phone buzzes but it’s just a ghost
My phone rings but that’s just me thinking

Driving fast made me feel more free then being in my own room
I’m being watched at home base
Someone is out here for another backstab
I’ve already lost my vibrance

My peace has been disturbed
I’m rolling off the road
I can no longer go home
I’m rolling off the road
I can no longer quiet my conscious down
I’m hitting the rail
I’m rolling off of a dream
I’ve failed and there’s no more believing

Everytime i try to paint you next to me
I fail

Why isn’t this working?

You’re supposed to be next to me
I guess
I hope
I don’t know where you’re currently at

Come and find me
The road can be stony
We can do this TOGETHER

Let me try again
I’ll paint you next to me
I’ll paint you in my life

My paint is getting less
I don’t know where to get new paint
The paint must find me
Just like you do

Just another day were people say that I mean the world to them
And fail to prove it

Here’s to the most beautiful woman in the room, the woman that caught my attention not only by her looks but for the type of woman she is. Someone that pushes through and perseveres.

To the most beautiful woman in the room. The woman I dreamt of all my life finally came but now you’re gone. I would always think of different scenarios on how I dream to see you later in life.

To the most beautiful woman in the room. The woman that I dreamt of playing “Ribbons in The Sky” by Stevie Wonder. The woman that would be the first thought in the morning after I pray and the last thought before I close my eyes.

To the beautiful woman I had to let go. Still so beautiful, but I guess it was for the better that we just stopped everything. You left me in a dark time, but at the end of the day you’re still the most beautiful woman in the room.
First time writing in a while. Hope you all like

Christmas is over
New year has begun
Not sure I'm ready for another one
Done all the things I resolved not to do
The lights blazing down
Time just flew

The world looks newer than before
Burning bright with colors galore
Feel it turn as I go through my day
Long years behind
Short ones on the way

Lighting life with the glow from ahead
Steps have went the wrong way instead
Branch is just too high to reach
Consumed in never-ending breach

The flame marks the proper route
Spells cast make it hard to get out
When my foot bravely goes to tread
Suddenly cells are made of lead

My fire drags me the opposite direction
Everglow remains in the darkest section
Memories of long ago linger in my head
Love I lost
Can't let go of
Remains in words unsaid

When asked my resolution I always respond
"Stop saying yes to things I am of rather not fond"
Of course I never commit and fail within a week
I try nonetheless though my attempt is too weak
