I find it hard to talk about life sometimes
Instead, I watch as time rots by
Fleeting days
Turn to forever nights

A hollow madness permeates my room
Nothing will stay forever
I like to say
'Just look at how the seasons change'
But for now, I fall with the pouring rain

His heart had crumbled
And slipped through the crevices of his fingers
Now all he sees is darkness

The stars no longer speak to me

Silence that lingers
Sometimes it lasts for days
Without a word to be heard
And your mind rots away
The flowers may be listening
Hearing what we cannot
They grow where we decay
Where we chose to put our plot
Nothing truly leaves
Nothing truly stays
The seasons will repeat
But it will not be the same

Inconsequential
Were the words he spoke
At least that is what she thought
Whilst the cold air whispered to her to go

I loathe it here
This room reeks of the past
Reduced to rubble
the walls have crumbled
Perfect for a hollow heart
Slumber feels shallow
Escaping will never last

These nights feel endless
Maybe time can heal my heart

'Why don't you smile?'

Have you seen this world?
The attraction it beholds
Great blues and lush greens
The enchanting songs that emerge from the trees
Such tunes can put your mind at ease
And the radiant stars
That helps light up the streets
This world is beautiful
Beyond the finest words could explain

'Why don't I smile?'

I see the beauty in this world
How could we fit in a world as lovely as this
The only problems we fix in this world are our own
How could I smile?
Knowing that we take so much
How could I smile?
Knowing that the problem is us
