The brain is a very big place
And the skull is a very small space
The thoughts overflow into the night
Tainting the darkness with a morbid light

I don’t mean to ruin your blackness
To corrupt you sanity with my madness
I tried to stop, such a beautiful thing to save
But it rushes out with a vengeance, an all-consuming wave
Tess Feb 2021
you must mind your madness,
people would **** for a chaos like yours
guard it with a gladness
with the knowledge your brain could win wars

Hello, I seem to have lost my mind
If you happen to find it would you please be kind
For it is a delicate thing with low self esteem
It lives in a world of its own, a self inflicted dream

Society was mean to it, it’s gone into hiding
I hope it’s happy, where ever it’s residing

The city looks so pretty
Do you want to burn it down?
Imagine all the colours we could paint this petty town

I know that feelings end and feelings change

But how could you love me yesterday and not today

How could you make me happy then make me hurt
Give me roses then give me dirt
Call me pretty then not reply
Make me smile then make me cry

There is a pain so intense no one can bare it
not the strongest or the bravest
this is the pain of being in love

the perfect agony
the painful ecstasy

it is not the affliction of love
love does not burn so much
the love for friend of family
does not reduce people to their knees

this is the agony of ‘in love’
the first glimpse
the first touch
before you see they are also human...

You
I feel like I’m in a dark room
Without light or a sense of direction
I used to be scared by the infinite gloom
But now I know you’re somewhere in it
