Why am I upset?
Wesley Dotson Feb 2019
I’m surrounded by white noise.
All I can comprehend
Starts with knifes for girls
And ends in flowers for boys.
Elders overtly condescend
The slightest error,
I single number ends
The brightest of lives
Snuffed our in terror.

Avacodon’t be sad
Wesley Dotson Feb 2019
With a Rose quartz around your neck
You’d figure Shakespeare had named you.

Depression is a heavy obstacle,
One that I can not save.
Could I provide a monocle,
Examine the stone.
It fades when exposed
To too much light.
You’re meant to be brave,
You’re never quite alone.
You’re time is not apropos.

I find you significant.
Wesley Dotson Feb 2019
Stubborn and cross,
Gross, and seldom lost.
Thank you for holding my hand,
On New Years.
I guess it meant a lot to me.

You’re writings have been an inspiration,
Much so that I feel like I won’t have a dream of my own.
I would follow yours to the end of the earth though,
Because much like you I
I am awfully beautiful,
Stubborn, and cross
Gross, and mostly lost.
I’m afraid that I do this all the time. I’m worried i’m Infatuated with another person. But they always have potential to mean so much to me, and I don’t know if that’s wrong or not.

I can see my scars
Wesley Dotson Feb 2019
In my roommates blue light.
I’ve got a heart
In the the terrible sky’s night.
You can’t say what you are
When we don’t feel alright.
Retrospective,
Introspective,
Classless every single
Absence of light

Hypothermia in an avalanche
Wesley Dotson Feb 2019
Sensitive words
Chilling into snow.
You only come forward
Thanks to the cold.
Bereft of frozen breath
When wanting to say hello.
Acceptance of death
As a mean to an end.
You frost into me,
As a quick sense of pain,
But then you leave,
An imaginative of the brain.

I’ve seen you as celestial,
This we’ve all already known,
I've held on for so long,
It'd be a disaster to see you go.

But you were never here.

I hope you don't hate me
Wesley Dotson Dec 2015
I know that I've been wrong
I hope you don't hate me
I was trying to help you all along
I hope you don't hate me
I pushed myself away
I hope you don't hate
You pushed me and told me to stay.
I hope you don't hate me
I have to move on
I hope you don't hate me
Because I loved you.

"How do you feel"
Wesley Dotson Dec 2015
"I don't know."
"Are you okay? Should I go?"
"No."
"Okay."
"For you, I'll stay,
And if you go.
I will be here everyday"

Are you even worth it?
Wesley Dotson Dec 2015
Of all the things I forget
Tell me everything thats bothered you
And we'll scorch it.
I want to make you feel better,
That's whats important.

I don't know, no,
Wesley Dotson Oct 2015
We don't know
How to handle each other,
I feel trapped in this
"I don't like you"
Way of view.
I'm climbing a rope
In gym class
It's a timed race
I will end up last.
"I can't climb anymore"
This rope became an obstacle course
Of how can I hold on the longest?
Do I have to prove I'm the strongest?
It's a battle of
"Great minds think alike,
And if I'm right
You're wrong"
And I have to be wrong.
Right?
Wesley Dotson Oct 2015
I've learned things,
Awkwardness is just honesty,
and I was just as affected be the pills,
As Monic lewinsky worked for Bill.

I have my shortcomings,
We as people do,
But if I lie to myself and you still,
Every time I see you the wounds won't heal.

So I'm taking responsibility,
I used you, I hurt you,
But if we learn to forgive each other,
Maybe.. Maybe we won't feel so,
Empty.
This is my apology. I am as sorry as you believe me to be.

You can still talk to me
Wesley Dotson Oct 2015
I'm sorry
Has become more of a social habit
Than an actual gesture.
It's a half assed apology.
I pushed so much of myself away
That I felt immense sadness,
When I look at you today.
I don't want it to be this way.
"You're okay"
It's not.
I think a lot.
It's my only way out of this nightmare
Of thinking I'm not good enough.
When in honesty it doesn't matter.
It's just a thought.
I like to think that I love you
But if I ever said the words out loud
You wouldn't believe me.
We used to talk about anything
Now I only say
I'm sorry.

It's THAT kind of different
Wesley Dotson Oct 2015
The one that you barely notice
It when you wake up in the morning
Probably snoring,
Finding you alarm clock has been,
Moved.
Two inches to the left.
The difference that doesn't fit right.
But if you turn on the light
My energy is still there.
The kind of midnight text
It wakes you up
When you are fast asleep
because, at midnight,
all the hurt weep.
You may be eyes open wide
Like an energy bomb of emotions
Exploded into your aura
Causing you to hate yourself
But my dictionary begins with adoration
And stops at the word you.
As if I didn't know enough
I have read through it cover to cover
Through and through
Enough to find
that you can still talk to me.

Those are just facts.
Wesley Dotson Jul 2015
By the standards of Batman Villians
I am insane.

I've been waiting for the day,
Where I would lose myself,
Let the words fall where they'd lay.
I'll be okay.

It's an inane request,
I'm tore by you
I can't get this feeling
Away from my chest.

Is it raining where you are?
Wesley Dotson Jul 2015
Cause she'll always be my lovely,
And I'll always be a **** up.
In the end that's the only thing,
That really matters.
But does it have to be that way,
Everything I do is poetic
And I'm tired of explaining every metaphor to you.
So just judge me,
For doing you wrong,
And while you sitting in you hatred
I'll show others to get along.
Cause I place my bets on the small talk,
All my money is on the rejects,
Don't tell me I'm less than you
No I can still be something greater

My Thoughts,
Wesley Dotson Mar 2015
The aftermath
Of once I sought.
While I sought a lot
through my thoughts,
It never really struck me,
I need to stop.
I'm staying on top.
But it's really hard.
I made a promise
To be act-less
But the fact is
I'm anxious,
I never really thought about it.
My heart is  *cure-less
Wesley Dotson Mar 2015
But terrified to open up
That's why you scream so loud
"THERE'S POSION IN MY CUP"
Who put it there?
I did
You killed yourself the second
You thought your idea
Was stupid.
Wesley Dotson Mar 2015
I just want to talk about it
If you give your opinion
You'll make an incision
That means cut at me
Like a knife
You how many other kids
Have a ******* up life?
Yes I know, but I'm worried about me
Circling around friends and catastrophe
I never really asked for a person
Like you,
I never really asked,
What am I going to do?

From once love
Wesley Dotson Feb 2015
They were made,
Once love,
Now fade,
Again they face
The pen,
Now afraid.

I never understood
Wesley Dotson Feb 2015
How Pokémon
Hurt themselves
Out of confusion.
You know,
Until I was
Confused.

I have so much time
Wesley Dotson Feb 2015
That the time flies by
And when everything catches my eye
Did you think I wouldn't see you
With that other guy?

Here's the reason why
We'd never be together,
When you picture forever
You think two
But together isn't forever
*If it's only me and you.

Metaphoically
Wesley Dotson Feb 2015
I am not fine at all,
My brain will crawl,
Like a spider,
Up the wall
Until it gets lighter
then it starts to swing and fall
You see me I'm a little less tall
And my brain knows
Something I don't
Liar Liar help my heart's on fire
My brain is crawling out my nose
Oh look there it goes
It's going to the home
We only really knew
Try to stay with me
And I'll be a little less alone
With you

— The End —
