I wake up to blue light I see it when I close my eyes frustrated, weighted by comparison I filter my intensity condense my personality I show tongue and teeth but no failures or flaws I see you in your squares, in all your glow I want to see the dirt under your fingernails want you to see me cry, my pores up close, counting eyelashes Our moments cascading down a feed that never fulfills shades changed and tweaked at exposure I am exposed every day am I known I want to see the world by your side not through your phone hear the sunsets reflect in your tone I don't want to lose a bet with myself that I don't stare I don't scroll lose my evening to a screen my life to anxiety of how people see me but I want to be seen I want to know you beyond your squares and validation screams content for moments till I review my content view myself in the eyes of another a narcissistic shudder I doubt and judge myself wishing not to compare not to care yet impulse is too lovable addiction and algorithmic luring habits savaged a daily instinct to share to show my life through squares

Squares
He held on But not to her She fell straight to the ground Feeling lost and hurt She loved He hated Everything that was in her head But yet still laid with her in bed He hated everything she wanted to be She was blind By love that wasn't give back in return A rose died that day Along with her love She took it all back He never realized it yet

Her Love......
She'll always be mine, in my mind, she was just too kind, she didn't see I was blind, she didn't hear me in rewind, gripping the gears we grind. Slipping through the best time of my life. My heart's shredded like weak lettuce, no function ****** relapsing sex-addict. Choice is asymptomatic my anticlimactic, sexless ****** maggot. She found out, I was ground out, last boxing bout. Hot flame snuffed out, no more volcano spout, just get the **** our , you're off this route. This is my dream now, gotta get back somehow. I gotta get a rolls Royce, then she'll feel my voice. No need to waste no more words, she only wants a new purse, she gonna jet or else. Sorry story has yet to unfold, I'm bearing my soul so don't betray my song. Ice any intuition, your heart will always win. This body is prepossessed, we are slaves to libido's blessing.
