Silent Flight

What lies beneath a sea of numb

where ships of heart were taken down?

Sunk to the bottom with the one

I hated and I meant to drown.

 

For in its hull it carried pain

instead of what its purpose was

and thus, I had immense disdain

because it never carried love.

 

So yes, I set it in my sights

then fired all I had and more.

Carpet-bombing through the night

Flame-Licked Heels

I’ve been working on

Coming back from

The dead

Realising reality

Living in this world

Becoming me

I don’t have to know who I am

But I must know that I am

I am, I am, I am

I don’t have to know what I am

To deserve to be

I’m working on being,

Just being

Because I’ve been existing

Absolute Zero

The girl who iced her emotions. 

Her physical and mental being out of motion. 

 

The coldness within her grew, 

induced by solitude and failure.

Because everything she once cared for let her down, and people wonder why she carries...

We Feel

Some time ago
My skin turned wooden
My feet moulded into one
Foot
I slipped
And smudged the painted grid
On the marble floor
Another time I fell
And did not stop
I rolled right off the board
It was not a conscious decision
To spectate rather than participate
But it happened
As it does to many
Who give up on giving
When you undertake solely seeing

Punk Rockers Don't Sing The Blues.

Put on my pants
Put on a show
Fake a smile
No one will know

Don't show weakness
Fake my emotions
Bury my anxiety
Just go with the motions

I gotta play fast
Need to sing out of tune
Because don't you know
Punk Rockers Don't Sing The Blues
