Even the word "Meaningless"
has its own purpose.
Find your own.

I look in a mirror.
I see my reflection.
Staring back at me.

I look in a window.
I see my reflection.
Running from me.

I look in the water.
I see my reflection.
It's rippling.

But all this time.
When I see my reflection.
My reflection is the wall behind me.

Midnight sees a chain
of lights,
heading into the forest
so dark.

Follow the Will-O the Wisp
at night,
walk with the lone wolf
that barks.

Take that step into the unknown, the path that leads to me,
and I'll be waiting there somewhere, deep within the trees.

So walk that long path
in peace,
follow your dream as
it winds.

Keep purpose in plain sight
to release,
love that is not left
behind.

As you can see,
I've never been a prodigy.
Always unimpressive, apparently.
Stressing is an everyday thing.
But you wouldn't care,
You're just so unaware.
Depression has me ensnared,
But you couldn't handle my despair.
So keep your eyes closed.
And I'll do the same.
The things I think about are completely insane,
I wish the good times would never change.
But this isn't my dreamland.
It's a place where I don't want to stand.
Depression is the ocean,
Anxiety is the sand,
And I'm somewhere floating in between it all.

Our love story
is written
with blood,
that's why
it hurts.

Take your false
sense of superiority
elsewhere
for we are
all addicts
in this consumer
culture
you aren't any more wise
than the man with a needle
in his vein
we
are
all going
through some
sort
of
pain
so tell me once
more
with an upturned nose
as you glue your
devoid eyes
at your phone
how you are better
than
the addict

I live in a house.
That looks like a home.
With silver tongues,
and eyes that roam.

With 4 walls,
and fake smiles.
No one could guess,
Our tears go on for miles.

A barking dog, a purring cat,
a chirping bird, our voices fall flat.
A picket fence, a lively pond.
Yet when they ask we don't respond.
To all the shattered families....
Number 2 in Story Of Our Lives.

Drops of caramel adorn your cheeks
You are seraphic
Milky skin
Sun spotted

God took His time
When He made you
