Two Sides

It's no longer a case of picking between you and him.

It's about you and me, about us coexisting in a sulphuric world.

It's between my sanity and your undoing, my selfishness, my failings.

Your expectations.

It's between two different paths that are never going to merge.

I have to pick between being myself or acting like what I'm obligated to be like.

I can't live the lie, I don't want the pretence. I won't be a slave to something I don't agree with.

This unit is broken, the trust diminishing and the love...well the love is no longer there.

The fleeting smiles that don't reach the eyes, the hardened glance that's meant to blame.

Love you say? I doubt it was ever love.

I'm lost, and you're no longer my guide. I'm the sheep that has been discouraged by the shepherd.

If I was an angel, my wings would be tipped with black...writer, lover, dreamer, thinker, complicated.

Bad Decisions

No one ever listens,. Yet I always try,. Sometimes I just want to run away,. Curl up and begun to cry,. No one ever cared,. Yet I do my best,. I'm sorry I'm only one person,.

I'm Fine

I'm falling short of. Your hopeless expectation,. You wanted plastic-perfection. But I'm just a reckless misdirection,. So let the alarm bells ring,. I'm the odds and ends of something,.

Choices

Have you ever been caught between two decisions. (Ofcourse you have) Your body and every physical sense demanding you take the quick fix and your mind telling you it is illogical and to wait.

Stressed Out

Anger digging up my mind, And screaming to myself, Fury takes up most of my time, And it questioning my health, Stress is buried deep within, On the verge of running away, But it seems I cannot...

@Irrational_Kimmi ill be fine in the end, just not sure when that will be. Or even where it is. Gah. 😚😰

@chickgamer sending you hugs 💜 and as my Johnny always says, it'll all be reet (in the end) 💔❤

@Irrational_Kimmi thanks hun, i hope it is. Just worried that I'll make the right decision for me which in reality is the end of everything I know. Where's the wine?!

@chickgamer I'm not really great on this sort of advice but I will say I missed my opportunity to make a radical change because it was scary and meant leaving everything I know. And I regret it, I do. But you have to do what's right for you xxx😘❤

This is sad hun hope you get through it ((hugs)) 💗xx

@sjw @Irrational_Kimmi thanks, hopefully I will get through it without running away. Though that is so appealing 🙏😂
