I exist when I am validated I am this as I was procreated I like life, although sometimes I hate it I wish that I could eliminate it I am worthy of what I am weighted I am who I am still to be stated I am choking, I need to be resuscitated I expect more than I’m always getting Caught up at the start of every ending Bouncing back each message I am sending Disrespecting those I am commending Just take me away from here already I am lost I need a new beginning I am broken and I’ve got no chance of mending Teach me to love myself I haven’t learned that well I am bleeding and breeding excuses I hope that you never tell Force me to hate who I was I need this change just because I am finding that fighting is harder When you’re against everyone And you’re the enemy of commonality Good luck on winning this one I will rise and I will fall to pieces I am strong and that’s my only weakness My ferocity comes as it pleases I don’t want, I desperately need this It’s the day and I am gonna seize it It’s my calling, it’s my destiny and I have found that it’s hard to take most things easy Teach me to love myself I haven’t learned that well I am bleeding and breeding excuses I hope that you never tell Force me to hate who I was I need this change just because I am finding that fighting is harder When you’re against everyone And you’re the enemy of commonality Good luck on winning this one Have I painted myself as a villainous man? Well I swear to the heavens it wasn’t my plan Oftentimes I am reckless with my words and my hands And I drop all that’s in them, they shatter like glass Am I preaching forgiveness or do I just sound crass? I’m beseeching my peers to give me one more chance I am sick of being treated like I am the last And I just want this whole thing to implode and pass Teach me to love myself I haven’t learned that well I am bleeding and breeding excuses I hope that you never tell Force me to hate who I was I need this change just because I am finding that fighting is harder When you’re against everyone And you’re the enemy of commonality Good luck on winning this one

We met in CLH, best friends of a friend I wanted to know all I could right there and then We joked around a bit before I knew your names You two looked so alike, your faces were the same We moved from place to place, laughed from shot to shot I had no chance with her, two chances left I thought I’m glad we stayed in touch, I’ve had a lot of fun But I must focus up, I can only have one I’ll tell it like it is, I’ve got no words to waste I just get so choked up whenever I see her face My eyes will not stay shut when I hear her speak I’m flustered and fucked up and contradictory The girls are in my world There’s Jennifer and her and her and her One’s a bit more bold, one is more reserved I know I like the prior, and she’s the one I deserve It’s good to have the option, when all else seems to fail I’ve had years of broken hearts still bleeding on my trail I live over here, she lives over there An hour apart but much too close to turn this to despair I may be overthinking, I know I probably am So sue me for attraction, loneliness I just can’t stand I’ll tell it like it is, I’ve got no words to waste I just get so choked up whenever I see her face My eyes will not stay shut when I hear her speak I’m flustered and fucked up and contradictory The girls are in my world There’s Jennifer and her and her and her I’m giving time to here I don’t know if she wants Feel bad for trying to speak to her around the clock I won’t know what will happen when I travel all that far So J please let me know if I can give my heart to R I’ll tell it like it is, I’ve got no words to waste I just get so choked up whenever I see her face My eyes will not stay shut when I hear her speak I’m flustered and fucked up and contradictory The girls are in my world There’s Jennifer and her and her and her

We finally spoke again Not like an ex-girlfriend But as a human that I care about And hadn’t heard from You asked me If I did Regret me ending it I said I didn’t, but the times we had Were good ones I messaged you again tonight You said you and him had a fight You said you needed to cut ties Said “Thanks” but didn’t say “Goodbye” I shouldn’t miss you like I do But I guess now we’re even too And now I feel certain mood Like you felt when I broke up with you In the past year and a half We haven’t had a laugh Haven’t seen you, since school got out But I heard you’re happy I guess that’s good to know You’ve beat me in that zone You deserve it, you really do From where I’m standing The way you said it left me shocked Gave me everything you got I don’t know why I care a lot But I just do, that is my thought But I know bits of how you felt When I told you we had to shelve The couple we knew as ourselves We stayed in our own kinds of hells I’ll only miss you as a pal I didn’t get to know that well After our split, emotional His jealously is the control

I see the beauty deep in the shade of gradience I see the way it fades away as radiance Soldiers of time can haunt me, I'm not afraid of this Pressure comes down but I still breath underneath the weight of this I start to mutter, my words won't come out The TV is fodder to fry my brain out I'm new the the system of realizing doubt I just get so bothered when you call me out My feelings: a family linked to anxiety Stuck in discomfort in sitting or standing I sleep when I want to I eat when I want to I still end up doing too much of the both of them now I watch the sunrise and I don't get weird about burning my skin I'm trying to put a silence to the little voice within Call me a coward but I don't see reason in hallucinogen I think it's better to just stay coherent in daily discussion I start to mutter, a cat grips my tongue My music is fodder and not good enough I'm sick of the system and what it's become I'm shaking and bothered by being the one Who's always accused of lack of understanding And doing things wrong without chance of recovery I'm trying my hardest, I'm trying my hardest But they don't seem interested in my hardest at all I watch the seasons start to transition from beautiful to harsh I can’t get over the changing of the weather at least not from the start Adjustment disorderly sensitive youth with a small and fragile heart And when I’m outgoing there’s no way of knowing to tell myself apart I start to mutter, my lips chapped and dry Your feelings are fodder and not self-implied I’m used to the system of closing my eyes I’m useless and bothered by things in my life The appreciation for my sole existence Is hard to establish and harder to witness I want to get better, I need to get better I don’t know If I’m ever going to get better than this
