Trapped up in this house of lies
covered ever so discreetly in its loving disguise
looking through the open door
begging, wishing, wanting more
each and every day passes me by
the seconds, minutes, and hours on the hands of time
watching as we all fade away
in the glooming encompass of everfading gray
        windows closing
        poeple imposing
trusting every enemy that fills your head
dancing the nights away with the living dead
         tweak out
                    freak out
                             sleep out
melting your brain inside
praying for the rain of tears, but all thats left is dry
running through these shrinking hallways
trying to remember better days
force on a smile, so your friends won't see
what's eating you alive? The real me.
digging your own hole
picking apart your frail soul
pounding the nails into your own Cozy coffin
smothering memories of when you thought you were something
        the wind blows
        the doors close
your fire ignites inside
your laughing at the thought of being buried alive
the house is overtaken by flames
you start to forget your purpose, your life, your name.
the foundation you called your own disappears
your mind is flushed. your head is cleared.
you look over the horizon see a new beginning ahead
forget the past there's something new to be had
         layer by layer
         brick by brick
you rebuild your ways
after all, tomorrow is always a new day.

Is this it?
Is this missing piece
The dancing in the rain,
The everfading pain,
Is this it?
Oh for what is this new feeling that I didnt realize I missed,
And the feeling of what it's like to be kissed
Oh the joy
Is this it?
The end of the puzzle
The end of the search
The end of the pain
This is it isn't it?
This is happiness
To dom, xoxo

Say something of value, little hunter boy
Something more than a line as carefree as the wind
And more concrete than your everfading emotions
bekh eternal Jun 2023
i wore your loss with me
i wore your loss to sleep every night
and you didn't feel a thing
you didn't feel a ******* thing
while your ghost lived in me every day
your ghost followed me

i lived alone in a hopeless world
with grey skies that never spoke a word to me
silent skies looking at me with contempt and indifference
and the moon stalking me through the clouds but staring silent, uttering no words

and i couldn't cry out that enourmous pain into nothingness
always alone wandering under grey violent sky searching for the crumbles of everfading light

the world was dying
its hollow heart in the center dead and rotting reality into decorations for my eternal suffering
fabric starting to tear
until i was dead
******* dead at my heart, all hope completely shut down
world, crooked, breaking down at the root, spilling, crushing down on me
anti-everything that knows no lifting

shot in the head
darkness complete down
weird blue light pulsing in some strange ally
stretching across that colorless void
i breath in
again

it was me

— The End —
