Do i want to live or be functional? i'm tired of waking up with a pit In my stomach but the Dull pain feels better than nothing So i’ll spend my days in front of Eyes that don’t feel Listening to scripted thoughts And i don’t want my medicine to kick in Can i lay in knowing and not **** myself? I’ll sip something to fill my physical emptiness My tongue will take every drop with hate I got an app to remind me to take my medicine The hills are calling with their eyes and I want to lay and lay with your hands I wish you understood me the way i long for I wish you wanted to I’m not functional. I feel the chaos in my bloodstream enough to Keep me alive and shaking As my fingertips run across my legs Oh, god left me so long ago Stranded to deal with everything myself Will the mountains save me? Hold me in it’s arms and communicate to me That i can be ok? Will the ocean stir and boil when My feet touch the edge? Can the trees of metal lift me, Like a bird let me see the city, Fill me with a sense of comfortability? I can’t do what i’m supposed to And i can’t do what’s good for me I don’t think there’s anything that could Make me or enable me to do so. And **** you for hearing my words and Blinking, not trying to make a difference. **** everything that is still. I live in a north river And my body whips with the current And i reach for the rocky land on the side Cut my hands on the points So i collapse into the water again Filling the nose and mouth with salt And disgust and the water isn’t Pure and clear blue anymore. i keep grabbing for more litter To make myself comfortable with. It never works.

where are hands, where are my feet

The river is right behind my house In case I can't find another way out

Get Away (15w)
So many people all around, I'm crowded in this space; Noises, voices, endless choices, Mind starts to erase. Walls start closing in on me, I'm trapped inside this place; Cries, surprise, I realize, I'm just another face. Get me out, let me go, My blood begins to race; Shining, pining, no declining, Breaking out with no disgrace. The box they put me in is gone, I'm a circle in this square place; Blinding, finding more, reminding The trapped to find escape.
