i would rather
not be enough
for a bad guy
than not be enough
for the good guy
Kay Feb 2019
I was there, alone
that wasn't new.
alone to feel the pain
the pain i liked to feel
i didn't have a knife
my thoughts cut deeper then the scissors
i couldn't even feel it at first
my mental pain melted away
forgotten by the feeling of the liquid dripping down my arm
sweet release if only for a moment
till the pain is just not enough
the reason behind your pain bubbling up
as you continue to bleed
what a mess.
Never so lost,
Never less hope.
North Star was gone,
Let go my rope.

Never so dark
Never less light.
Landmarks were gone,
Left looked like right.

Never so tired,
Never less born.
Sunset was East,
And in the morn.

Never so scared,
Never less bold.
Map upside down,
My torch burned cold.

Never so sad,
Never less free.
Where’s that compass
Inside of me?

A love that never was

Oh but I felt it
As we left it behind
getting cut
on the raw edges
not yet worn by time
or effort

Just a fresh feeling
I really did love her

I just want to fly away in a big *** rocket-ship,
Don’t want to live under a sky, filled with hate.
So tired of everyone trying to, **** each other.
Why can't we all just, love, one another?

I was so unaware, till you opened my eyes,
Thought i would never fall, till you said I couldn't fly.
And did that make you happy?
Making me feel blue?
We’re all people,
Your not better than me, and I’m no better than…
You.

Icarus, believed he could fly, to the gods
Until his father, told him, to stop.
So down he fell, product of disbelief.  
Laid dead on the sands, ****** and….
Gone.

And now i'm gone.
