▂▃▅▇█▓▒ Drowning in a Stream of Consciousness ▒▓█▇▅▃▂

I'm staring holes/

At blank pages/

Pouring out my soul/

In front of ugly faces/

Always willing to criticize/

Every verse and every line/

Feeding people with their lies/

Judging me by what's on my mind/

Am I really capable of doing better?/

Ink smears on this sheet of paper/

Like bloodstains on a suicide letter/

Your hollow words fade into vapor/

There's nothing left

For you to say

So save your breath

And just walk away

Pick up the pace

And let's now begin

We won't repeat this mistake

Ever again

Echoes of the past/

Haunt this room/

As fallen shards of glass/

Litter this filthy womb/

I'm creating new life/

Only for it to be distorted/

You cut right in like a knife/

In order to have it aborted/

Crossed out ink-stained heart/

Bleeding out one last murmur/

Reach right in to tear it apart/

And get away with murder/

There's nothing left

For you to say

So save your breath

And just walk away

Pick up the pace

And let's now begin

We won't repeat this mistake

Ever again

Under the gun/

Feeling the pressure/

This used to be fun/

Instead I feel weathered/

From searching for the spark/

To find the right words/

That hide in the dark/

While listening to broken records/

Of your voice inside my head/

But I will not bow / I will not quit/

Despite everything you have said/

To me / None of it has ever meant shit/

There's nothing left

For you to say

So save your breath

And just walk away

Pick up the pace

And let's now begin

We won't repeat this mistake

Ever again

Take a much closer look/

And then you will see/

That I'm an open book/

To be read between the periphery/

Keep your ignorance

To yourself

I never asked for this

Or for any help

From a selfish fake

You're gonna lose your face

When we drop the bass

I can already see you break

Light Her Up

I like the way she dances

Twisting in the air

She ain’t got no cares

I like the way she tastes

Fruit punch to my lips

A cigarettes kiss

Light her up when I’m low

Light her up when I wanna glow

Light her up when I’m stressed to death

Light her up when I’m fucking depressed

My nicotine queen and

She got me fiending for that feelin’

Not a care ‘bout cancer

Fill me with your sickness

I’m dying for it

Light her up when I’m low

Light her up when I wanna glow

Light her up when I’m stressed to death

Light her up when I’m fucking depressed

I like the way she dances

Twisting in the air

She ain’t got no cares

Filling me with sickness

It’s a craving, an illness

I like the way she tastes

Fruit punch to my lips

A cigarettes kiss

Light her up when I’m low

Light her up when I wanna glow

Light her up when I’m stressed to death

Light her up when I’m fucking depressed

Issues

I wasn’t there when you kissed me

Convinced that I’m the one thing you need

But I can’t breathe when I’m with you

You got me out my mind, so damn confused

You got issues

You abuse

Telling me shit that ain’t true

Cuz you can’t lose

Won’t lose

Telling me I’m the one with trust issues

You got me fucked up if you think we end game

Bitch, we ain’t even on the same page

I can’t fucking breathe when I’m with you

You got me out my mind, so disgusting

You got issues

You abuse

Telling me shit that ain’t true

Cuz you can’t lose

Won’t lose

Telling me I’m the one with trust issues

Bitches I don’t know calling me saying let you go

Warning me you don’t play, no

You’re the date rape type

The obsessive, end my life type

You got issues

You abuse

Telling me shit that ain’t true

Cuz you can’t lose

Won’t lose

Telling me I’m the one with trust issues

But I’m not confused

You’re the one with issues

You need a fucking institute

Creativity Bleeds

You blame me for havin feelings

Shame me for expressing these things

Tell me to give up

To learn to move on

But how does one heal if they just hide it all?

My whole life I’ve felt left out and lost

Misunderstood, just another lost cause

Told to shut up, forget myself, just try to fit in

When will this nonsense end?

So I bleed my pain through a pen

Bleed my sorrow through some paint

Sing my heart out till I can’t feel the pain

Make some beauty from my sorrow

Something beautiful so I don’t end my days

I tried to be what you wanted

Tried so damn hard it nearly killed me

You blame me for failing your expectations

Now you ask why I resent you

I’m sorry I wasn’t enough

I’m sorry the real me isn’t good enough for you

I’m sorry if you can’t love me for who I truly am

So I bleed my pain through a pen

Bleed my sorrow through some paint

Sing my heart out till I can’t feel the pain

Make some beauty from my sorrow

Something beautiful so I don’t end my days

Okay

I got demons stuck up in my head

They want me suffocating, suffocated

I got demons stuck up in my brain

They don’t want me to see another day

Ima smile and pretend I’m okay

I’m okay

I’m okay

Can’t you tell

I’m okay

I’m okay

Okay

Okay

Dark thoughts follow me around like a damn dark cloud

Can’t shake ‘em off no matter how far I run

Hit the gas pedal, still can’t run them out

Too many meds and I’m still feeling down

I got demons stuck up in my head

They want me suffocating, suffocated

I got demons stuck up in my brain

They don’t want me to see another day

Ima smile and pretend I’m okay

I’m okay

I’m okay

Can’t you tell

I’m okay

I’m okay

Okay

Okay

Haunted by my memories, my thoughts be my own enemy

Can’t turn my head off, keeps me up all night long

Hit the gas pedal, my mind’s gonna run

Too many meds and I’m still feeling down

Can’t sleep, can’t eat, can hardly think

But if you ask imma say I’m just fine

Don’t worry ‘bout me now

You can worry when I’m gone

I got demons stuck up in my head

They want me suffocating, suffocated

I got demons stuck up in my brain

They don’t want me to see another day

Ima smile and pretend I’m okay

I’m okay

I’m okay

Can’t you tell

I’m okay

I’m okay

Okay

Okay

Sister and Brother

Cargo boats

pass back and forth

on the river behind our house.

The empty lot where,

just last year,

we picked wild greens

and ran around playing,

now has stacks of materials

piled up there.

Factories,

small workshops,

workers’ lodgings—

more and more of them

around the neighborhood.

With more people around,

more customers started coming in,

and our shop

looks busy these days.

The grown-ups always say

how hard things were after the earthquake.

I was still too small

to really understand

what was happening,

and all I remember

is people coming and going,

one after another,

taking care of me,

doting on me,

being kind to me.

That’s all I remember,

so I think

I’m glad

I was a child back then.

After school,

taking care of my little brother

became routine.

I tied him to my back,

rocked him to sleep,

did my homework like that,

sometimes went out to play nearby

just the same.

When I shared my snack,

he cried for more.

I’d make him chew on a cloth.

But he was so cute,

I’d give in

anyway.

I blew dandelion fluff,

and he laughed.

If we could just get through

the evening hours,

things would somehow work out.

The radio played at the shop entrance,

and the laughter of the men

echoed on.

Ⓣⓡⓐⓝⓢⓘⓔⓝⓣ

Here we are now

Only the two of us

The sun went down

Shrouded in nocturne's dust

I turn to you

You look to me

It's time you know

I'll take my leave

Of this place

How bittersweet

On my face

Written is defeat

I turn my head

You give a sigh

From what you've read

This is my goodbye

All we have left is tonight

So let's make it count

Last chance to make this right

Lynching all of your doubts

Set a fire with the spark

That's nestled deep in my heart

Shining bright with new hope

Just like a kaleidoscope

We'll twist and turn

And then you'll learn

From looking deep inside

The answers you will come to find

Reflect what it is that I store

It's you that I adore

Let's bind the hands of time

Placing yours within mine

Make this last one more night

Girl, it'll be all right

Found out it's not all lost

As we stand forever close

Holding you deep within my arms

Underneath this blanket of stars

We know it will end

But we'll stay dreaming

Until the sun ascends

This fantasy is now bleeding

Start to turn away

You grab my hand

Begging me to stay

But you must understand

This is my decision

On the right track

Towards my final destination

There's no turning back

After all these years

It ends like this

So save your tears

Sneak in one last kiss

This is something I need to do

For the both of us

It hurts because we know it's true

Keep me captive in your thoughts

I made an epiphany/

That all my dreams/

Are potential realities/

Sometimes life is not what it seems/

See it better with a sense of clarity/

All we have is this moment/

Forget tomorrow/

Make it dormant/

Take the time, don't borrow/

Everything comes to pass/

It all goes by so fast/

Nothing gold can ever last/

Except as sand in the hourglass/

Life's too short/

Carved in a headstone/

Can't be ignored/

Won't be atoned/

So break these chains/

Wrapped around your mind/

And kill this pain/

That keeps you confined/

Like a noose/

Woven around your neck/

Cut yourself loose/

And take the next step/

Let's bind the hands of time

Placing yours within mine

Make this last one more night

Girl, it'll be all right

(ALRIGHT!)

Found out it's not all lost

[Everything comes to pass/]

As we stand forever close

[Nothing gold can ever last/]

Holding you deep within my arms

[Everything comes to pass/]

Underneath this blanket of stars

[Nothing gold can ever last/]
