Dynamite

January 9th, 2018

I know I’m always confused
But this time it’s not the same
I’m losing myself to this
And I’m the only one to blame
I don’t know what happened
I lost site of myself
I think I need help
But there’s nobody else
I’m feeling so lost
I don’t know what to do
I put up a shield
And they all see through
These people are all identical
They say the same thing
That I’m going to be okay
But why am I still aching
I don’t know what is wrong
I don’t know what is right
I’m trying to hold myself together
But I’m as stable as dynamite

These ideas won’t leave my head
I don’t know what to do
I’ve let these issues pile up
Because they’re too difficult to work through
My thoughts work overtime
But I’m ready to clock out
And the more hours I put in
The more I find myself in doubt
I’m searching for a solution
That works for everyone involved
And the more I dance around it
The more it can’t be solved
School never once prepared me
For these answers I can’t provide
Because how am I to respond
To a problem that’s unidentified

Confidant

January 2nd, 2018

Here’s to starting something new
But I don’t know what to write
I hold so much inside
And it keeps me up at night
Am I being honest with myself
Or do I not know what I want
The reasons have piled up
Why this is my confidant
I’m running out of people
That I can tell the truth
I watch them slip away
As I’m aging out of youth
My head spins in confusion
My heart is falling behind
I’m trying to break free
But I’m feeling so confined
I keep reaching out for help
They all watch me as I drown
I don’t know what to do
These thoughts will bring me down
