I don't want to write for you,

But for me.

I don't want to dance for them,

It's my body.

I'm always afraid of mediocrity,

but I lock myself away.

So here I am on the couch,

grade B Socrates.

I don't want to impress them

I just want to stay

In the formless world I curated,

existing my way.

Gone.

I wonder where you go
When you are gone
All
I
Know
Is
That
You
Are
Not
Here

Where do you go?

Clouds on the bedroom floor.

Clouds on the bedroom floor.

It isn't anything.
Maybe it's everything.
Seeing it all.
The waves.
Midnight.
While you're still here.
Feel like ****.
Pictographs.
Written cloth.
Sidewalk in Perth.
Headphones.
for every reason.

Garrett Johnson.

Anxious like Rue

.Wav Theory

Our souls akin to oceans
Our emotions akin to waves
Our hearts embrace emotions
Our brains can’t do the same
The brain controls the heart 
The mind controls the brain
The sun controls the moon
The moon controls the waves
Our thoughts can shape the Earth
Our love can do the same
The Earth controls the moon 
So we control the waves

.wav theory - Towiko
This song always made me feel in control of those seemingly uncontrollable things, as if my destiny was my own to write, I added to the concept I think ?

My eyes

My eyes may say "cool as a cucumber."
But that's just what I want you to see.
Because in reality, my eyes
Are aquariums of anxiety in disguise.
