The Seven Seas.

Its like Learning to crawl again;
When you're stuck with your head in the ground.
The bottomless well has thousands of yells.
And the words build up their mound.

I need to clear the fog;
My car's an overused auto gear,
I need to achieve clarity,
It's too crowded in here; I need to rest my fears.

They recently captured my photo;
Yet It displays me expressionless;
It's the photo of the year,
But it shows I'm living timeless.

I was cornered by myself;
Drowned by the seven seas.
Yet I still believed;
Believed you were the devil-
The devil in me.

Were You Right?

Butterflies flutter, Fly high I sit here and I cry. If only I had wings, I could take off to better things. But no, I sit here and I see, I don't know who is 'me'.

Dis

If you think I'm worth my words, Like the fairies of old. Trust me, I am not, Nor am I worth my rank.

Living Or Dying

I walk. I eat. I sleep. I touch. I see. I smell. I hurt. I ache. I long. I am all but I am not. I do things for necessity. I breath for the sake of breathing. I work to have a job.

Just Another Day

I could lay here and pretend I'm sane. Cry out the lies I've given just like I have been everyday.

Adjusted

There's no way of knowing where i'm going. Instead of living i'm supposed to sit back; floating. Go with the flow and be patient, Stay seated in your proper station.

A Fool Among Many

I think that the hand that feeds. Is the face that will lie. Interchanging between good and bad. He leaves a trail of hurt nearby. Such selfish needs perspire from pores.

It Seems

It seems that my life seems so great, it seems that everything going on in my life is good. It seems like my life is perfect, but yet as perfect as it seems why I am not happy.

Total Emptiness

Is this the end. Does that which hurt us make the fury burning deep inside fueled to a degree that is not logical.

It's about Anxiety and thinking too much; especially while communicating with someone - where you can't make out what they say because you think too loud :)

Cool. But that's the beauty of words, we all read/interpret them in different ways, so don't always have the same meaning for everyone. I like the dark side too ;-)
