Swamped, suffocating,
Pressure to smile.
Yet the plastered grin mask goes unrecognised.
Angered screams of help muffled by blankets of stronger louder voices,
Defacing my screams into white noice.
So remain silenced,
The aching knot getting more and more entwined inside,
The longer its left the tighter and more painful it becomes,
It reaches a point that pills will only remove it but in doing so they snatch away pieces of your inner self.
A Dumbing down effect.
fighting a battle yet to win the war.

I Stand Here
I stand here. Just staring at empty space. I daren't feel. My fears I cannot face. They twist my gut. My chest feels tight. In this tunnel of mine. There is no saving light. I walk with a dark cloud.

Alone
Truth develops sadness. Eyes develop tears. Mind develops madness. Alone i fight my fears. Not a soul left to talk to. Not a soul left to care. Not a soul left, where are you.

You Can't Hurt Me As Much As I've Hurt Myself
You try and make me cry. But what if my eyes are dry. You try and make me feel low. But what if i’m so low. You can’t bring me down anymore. You try and point out all my flaws.

The Mess In Me
Cry myself to sleep, Watch my eyes colors bleed. A shot in the dark. Spark & shock, restarting my heart. Down a slippery path of arrogance. Whispers of a different muse.

A Soulless Body
No life in that ghostly face, Sitting wordless, gazing into space. Purple bags beneath eyes, Body numb from all the lies. Only life is ragged breath, Inches from life, inches from death.

Rainy days.
Does it sadden you to know that you are nothing more than layers of flesh hiding bone. That when the sun goes down you'll be nothing but alone. It does for me.
