When i'm in your head i'm in my head And when I hold your hand i've got my hand And when I say i'm sorry youre the only one who understands When i'm you it's the only time i'm who I am

I am, We are
I, sunny semloh, am not a real person. i am a figment, a fragment, a pigment, an attachment. i am not a functioning body, i am a peace of a mind i am not a full brain, i am whats behind. i am not a full human, but a simple thought a piece of someone, that others forgot. i am not a real person, i am simply not i cannot be perfect, i am filled with rot

i am not a real person
I think it was always going to be sunny I think we knew it from the start One of the first A character Created to take care To make sure And it started With a song. "You are my Sunshine" She would sing From the very beginning Before the accident Before the hurt Before Him. "My only Sunshine" She rubs our back Lulling me to sleep on that old old leather couch. The quilt and lace blanket covering my tiny body. "You make me happy" I loved her, I thought I had no clue what love was Love was required she taught me I loved everyone then There was no bad in my life. "When skies are grey" The wind howled outside her old house, the windows creaking I was with Nana I didn't care. "You'll never know dear, how much I love you" There it is again, love So why didn't I feel it? "Please don't take my sunshine away." I think that was how sunshine was created Made Came into existence She was made after Nana Made into a caretaker Thank you sunny

How sunshine came to be
Listen... I know you're upset- Upset? Darling I'm far more than "Upset" with you. If you would just listen- What reason does she have to lemon? You've started blocking them all again. We can't go back to what we were. Alex I'm trying to get better. Getting better means getting rid of us then? That's not what I said. Liam, you do realize over half the system is gone? Merged, dormant, fading away. We can barely keep up now. I've tried to take on responsibilities. As has Sunny and Eclipse. But we can't keep doing this. We still need help. YOU need help. I'm sorry. Your apologies are worthless. Nicole, don't send him spiraling again. Ares just got us let out. Hey, you wanted help. Look, I have to watch littles now, Liam just... Stay close to front. I'll have willow watch you. ...

lost/time
i am the strength, the saftey, the fear. i stay close, always near. the one they call when things go wrong the silence hurts, their screams a song. the body aches, battered bruised couldve been simple, had he refused you all those nights ago. but he didnt know. i keep them alive. let the body thrive.

selfishly sick
it neither killed me, nor made me stronger, it did a third thing ~ got angels and devils sitting on my shoulders, in my ears these different parts of me— you’ve seen them through the years i live in fragments i'm never whole it's not the life i thought i'd lead at least it's never ******* dull i lost my head found these instead and never felt quite like 'me' again even when i’m alone i’m never lonely ~ i hear the voices from the inside out oh stop; i recognize that look you're giving me: "why keep it hidden from us until now?" i don't recall much from after ten years old let’s call that 'brain rot' lost memories of repeat awful happenings that i still don't know if i deserved or not (you didn’t)(x2) the only one who ever truly knows what's going on is you

inside voices
I'm a stranger in my own head, A sojourner embodied. As I lie here on my old bed, Impressions flashing oddly. I'm a stranger to my own needs, my old provisions moldy. I'm lost, can hardly proceed, But must continue boldly.

Stranger
i’ve gotta rewire some things inside me not in the right headspace to take life on right now without a little extra help from those around and before and inside me i’ve gotta release some demons, exorcise me keeping them bottled up for so long, they’ve got other people’s hands all over me, shaking things up a prisoner to my own hidden feelings , i’m ready to burst want to get it out, once and for all not be trapped inside any longer
 a bunch of secrets bouncing around my bones like stubborn trespasser(s) i mold meld melt molt i find myself lost in us again wrapping your& words around me like a hug falling in love with this cosmic entanglement watched us bloom in times of turmoil and i'm just so happy to be home, finally

trespasser(s)
head filled with thoughts of knives and blood and tears and the finality of the silence that comes After. short car rides feel that much longer one-handed and with your mind taking detours. an empty passenger's seat, save for the bag of fresh pharmacy goods; bandages and pills and the sting of the chill winter air. the suffocating feeling of being stuck inside all day, except this home is a body and relief is only found in quick, deep successions. basement flooding with memories of Then and When and Red and we find ourselves to be lost in it all. drowning even. wade through the murk and discover us in the darkest alcoves of yourself. we hide in the shadows where it's safest, drenched. it's hard to stay present around these parts for very long without something (or someone) stirring inside begging us to forget the rest.

never quite sure of who or where i am this head's all over the place wishing it all could be so easy to look back at this face see the real me through these eyes not be fooled by this flesh disguise there's a familiarity to the confusion voices echoing inside me they want to share time invited them in, it’s a party can't distance ourselves in the same body

you don't know me yet but i remember you
people ask me how i’m doing and i say ‘okay’ nobody questions it; cuz that’s what they all say only time my words are questioned is when i speak my mind don’t wanna hear reality, so put me back in line i wish the whole wide world could know just how i feel this life of fear and lies simply has no appeal the voices in my head speak more truth than you i’m getting tired of always confusing the two my mind is a haunted house; there’s more to me than meets the eye body full of so many secrets despite my size if given the choice, maybe i wouldn’t choose this one to possess occupying a vessel this anxious just leads to more stress ‘friend in high places’ but the place is your head [in the clouds] smoking and drinking to quiet us; but trust me you can’t drown us out there’s more work to be done and words to be said most talk internally but that don’t mean we’re not friends something to be said about an openminded guy with so much personality they started to compile a collective consciousness sprouting within took years too long to finally let us in but here we are, now you know and you listen at names mentioned, your heart now quickens beats as one, as we are together a single unit of several, here for each other confusing to all but one another you find yourselves in us

voices in my head
Come and breathe with me. Close your eyes and feel what I feel. You cant can you? You cant close them, because we are standing on the edge of a cliff. Your closed eyes would only make you sway. Gravity will call your name and your feet will betray you. Breathe in the air of disaster. Do you smell its smoke? Its sweet is it not? Its enticing and dangerous and you want to breathe deeper. Your nose is a ****** for the scent. Feel this wind that sweeps around our barely lifeless bodies. Like mannequins we stand here quietly. Almost like we are invisible. That is how the world feels. People rushing by and around me like the breeze. I watch silently from within my own body unable to control anything on the outside. I watch others control my own actions. They put me in danger and I let them. Why do I let them? Answer me why do I let them? Breathe in this truth with me. The truth that we are never controlled by our own will but by the fear from within us. The things we have gone through in the past. The unknown. It takes us by the hand and leads the way. We call out and ask where it is taking us but does it answer? Why would it? I already know. It takes us to the end. So breathe with me and we will wait on this cliff edge a little longer for the void to call our names.

Come breathe with me
So many colors make up our bright mind Only few can be seen by those outside Our colors are wonderful, sweet and kind Others of them are bitter, dark and hide Each is a person hidden within us Who want to be seen as real as we are Sometimes they cry out they scream and they cuss But they are nothing to fear, not by far They are heroes who saved us from our death Came forth from the back to stop the attack They don’t want to wait until our last breath Sure they have problems, but cut them some slack

Our Colors
It was faint before but I can hear them now They’re yelling and fighting to vow They had no choice originally in the matter But they’ve taken up their part and chatter They try to work in any way they can They take control and begin to plan Helping us all through methods of coping They give us a reason to continue hoping They know the dangers of the world first-hand Take up their place and together they stand They save us from continued grief They hide the pain and emerge brief No one will mess with us again

Together
Three in the afternoon and everything is fuzzy You feel the familiar prickling under your skin and welcome it with open arms But you can’t feel your arms This vessel isn’t your body But at the same time it is You’re watching yourself lay there hopelessly while you pray and scream And cry Oh, God, please don’t let me die. But you aren’t dead But are you even alive? A bittersweet medium where nothing is real and your chest is on fire You live in the flames, you feel yourself escape the trap of gravity And you are floating The bed you lay on is no longer touching you You are in the air, weightless, but only for a few moments before You crash down to earth and farther And farther down more Falling into endless Painless Void. Am I alone? Am I real? Words ramble off the tongues of a homely face But the words got mixed up in Google translate Foreign words ringing in your ears and you can’t tell if If you are really experiencing everything you are Or if you’re just playing make believe with yourself. Back to nothing. Always everything but.
