#dbd - Hello Poetry

You and your romantic ways, your countless list of reasons, your lovely lilac haze Shadowed only by your fears there's not a universe where I stay. Battled me. And all my disarray The timing and the distance, my thoughts that force resistance. My lack of patience sure put up a fight, and mix her with my temper and we'll be here all night. My fear, always ready to run, pulling me back behind the wall I built, away from the warmth of your sun.

Do your people watch me? Do they know where I am? This imbalance of knowledge seems slightly unfair, I have to wonder, and ponder, and yearn, Yet you sit back peacefully with your ways to learn, The curiosity is torturing me, making me sick What are you doing? Who is it with? Heartache morphs to obsession sickenly quick But if I miss a step, or I scare the crows, the universe makes sure you're the first one that knows.

I avoid my reflection, can’t look at that woman too long. The longer I lock eyes with her, the more I find is wrong. Maybe I’m over-critical, but I hate how much she hides. I can’t take her criticism, and she’s terrible at goodbyes. I know she tries hard, Which just makes me feel worse. She’s never been enough, but you can’t live your life feeling cursed. I avoid my reflection. You see how fast I spiral— I start with her nose, then tear through her woes, This hating disease must be viral.
