Savoury sweat
Quit crying 'cos you'll die
While I cry they hum
Melodramatic scum
Happy hues make it
Dark ones lie alone
Lick luminous laughter lengthily
Sweet skin
Keep me sane
Hug me tight
Hurt me quick
Just don't bite
All I hear is the uncomfortable cry
It's spinning too fast make it slow down
I'm too still to move forwards and I can't turn around
I won't take off because I've got nowhere to land
It's undisguised understand that and rip it apart to rearrange and replace the lost times all stuck on the same spot in your brain to play their part
The urge overwhelms it's desire to jump as spontaneous as fire kills me to think this but can't deny the frights too high for my underestimated mind
Horizon of the pits
I can't sit like a star I must force my knees high until I reach the ground when I can bounce off with no worry or cry to just fly and say goodbye
We are here right now and forever more
Take me home outside the rush expand the air and fill it up kisses and joy intertwined to powerblast me into high I push my weight down just to glide into the heavens where we collide
This will all become strange
You're not very bright
I want to know how people's minds work
So that I can compare them to mine
But I don't compare myself to other people
And I can't read people's minds
I feel sorry for myself a lot
Need to speak up
But people shove me down
Not all of them matter
Though they all make me frown
I can't speak
Your face scares me
What will you do?
What will happen to me?
I left you to leave me so I owe you a rejection
Not bothered today
Too bummed to care
Nothing is here
No wants in the air
I want to talk
But not to you
His hat was on
Sideways
No talk
His hair a mess
Just smiling
He looked his best
I had backhanded him
Another friendship over
Take me inside so I won't have to keep guessing
I want to judge them without being judgemental
But what if I'm wrong and it's not sentimental?
There's a tunnel beneath a tunnel beneath a mountain beneath a sky
Comfort-empowered I conquered the world then returned it the way it was
No one knows so I'm not stupid
He's mature
She's not
She's crazy
He's not
He's obsessed
She's not
She likes herself
He likes her more
He's unnerving
She's alluring
She's wanting
He's undeserving
I'm pretty but you make me feel ugly
I am happy until I hear you speak
I'm ashamed of myself because of you
Your words poison my soul and I weep
I am happy about being scared
I didn't tell other people
Can't go back to them now
Be confused
I will stab you with rainbows and graze you with kisses and beat you with fluff and squash you with poetry and lift you with power and throw you with tragedy and smile at your face with a mirror and you beside me
Well there are actual people who actually think that I'm actually pretty
Insignificance curls
Me up as I am
Grounded
Everyone can
See me now I want
To make this stop
I want things to return to the way it first was
If I had known I would've tied you to a chair and brought you food
Enough is always enough
I'm tired and angry and bored and lonely
