I'm sorry
Sorry that I'm not who you
want me to be.
I am a complete fuck up
I screw up a lot of things
in life.
I let opportunities past and never
saw them again.
I think a lot. Things. Bad things.
Things like hurting myself.
Fading away. So instead,
I medicate.
Not the prescription you get
from doctors.
I talk about the chemical
substance from mother earth.
The kind of things
you get from the streets.
I am not sober. And I don't
know when I will be. Or
if I will ever be.
I can not change who I am.
Living the life under a mask,
that I can not do.
But distracting my mind through
whatever means.
That I can do.
Because I do not want to be that
smoke that slowly disappears in the air.
I wanna be the arms to keep you
warm.
At least while I am
here.
Here with you.
Fighting this battle
with my demons
was never easy.
But I'm trying.
I'm trying because I know
Nothing is forever.
We are bound to die.
Eventually.
But I want to be there for you.
You didn't have to feel the same way.
But I will show you nonetheless.
It's hard.
Hard to have so much shit going on.
They clash in my head like hammers
on nails.
But being with you, there is none of that.
Just you.
And when you're not with me
I go back to fall in the pits
Fighting just so you will
have no reason to think
that it's your fault.
It isn't your fault.
It is mine.
My thoughts, my lungs,
my blade..
Please understand
I'm trying.
If you can't
then I say thank you
thank you for accepting
me. As me.
Even for a brief moment.
No one else has.
No one will..
