Lightning and Silence

I may be on this bitch of a website physically, but mentally I'm still at warped, hugging a pole

•I wasnt born to please

I wasn’t born to please

I wasn’t born to please

I wasn’t born to please

So please leave your

expectations at the door

Before you walk my mind•

[lightningandsilence]

-There’s a weight in my head

Like the weight I’d imagine

Laying on the grass with you

Would feel like-

[lightningandsilence]

~your eyes are like the sea blue light Under a starry night I don’t know why But they love falling on me And I’ll start falling for them~

[lightningandsilence]

||I wonder if the trees look down Disappointed in me But I’m growing, I swear The cold just likes to breed And maybe I’ll just fall Into the branches of your arms The world loves giving me signs It never wanted me||

[lightningandsilence]

~We all look for love In the ways we don’t have it An earth deprived star Must be bursting in sadness And it’s fine, it’s just the way the world turns But it’s nice knowing you’ll be kind To me~

[lightningandsilence]

-You used to be the word of god Maybe you still are But your voice hits unfaithful ears-

[lightningandsilence]

-I left that night Swear I had the highest low The murky watergates were opened I was about to overflow The rocks and rivers Were shapeshifting into sand And we all kept waiting For some promised land-

[lightningandsilence]

||I just want to hold your hand Through a broken screen It cuts me open I’m reminiscent like that And twice as hopeless And I was hoping you could cut These threaded dreams from my neck They’re taking me over my head||

[lightningandsilence]

~Now I’m praying to the aliens’ gods Screaming in the voice they showed to me Cause theirs is married to the sea Oh, what an epiphany to my drowning dreams~

[lightningandsilence]

|Will it bother you if I change a single thing Does the comfort lie in mediocrity But how will we know if we never have a choice The voice of pressure Is making too much noise|

[lightningandsilence]

•Don’t say I’m his I’ll tear blood from the skin Anything connecting is a poison But the cure’s out here ripping me apart Is it better off with infection Or should I deal with the injection You’re the opposites of one evil Can I figure out whose more wrong•

[lightningandsilence]

I can say I don’t love you I’m just passing borrowed time It’s like campfire stories I’m just passing the lies

[lightningandsilence]

We're all spitting gas

In our cigarette rooms

Gonna burn the house down

With all of the fumes

[lightningandsilence]

Are these symptoms of awareness

Or a syndrome of synthetic love

And is it really enough to notice

We won't do anything about it

Unless it helps keep our air

[gay-waste]

Is this poetry the calvary

Writing on the walls make the suicidal crusade

Are these bullets made to entertain

Or to further push the lives away
