The Key

October 8th, 2018

If I’m being honest
What does that mean
These lies have filled me up
Like water in a canteen
Refreshing and cool
But not quenching my thirst
I’m holding it inside
But I’m going to burst
Can I honestly ask
How have I lied
I never was deceitful
But was it implied?
They tell me I’m wrong
That it’s the only policy
But is it too late for me
To live my life in honesty?

Declaration

October 5th, 2018

I know you’ve know tragedy
Since you turned four
So let’s find how this ends
And surrender our war
I never give up
Yet I raise my white flag
I just want to feel content
No matter it’s pricetag
With explosions midair
I offer my peace
So don’t claim to be the hero
In your press release

Goodbye

September 27th, 2018

Everyone says hello
When I’ve already said goodbye
You still haven’t left
And I don’t know why
They said to give it time
But I can’t give anymore
My heart is still broken
From this open sore
You didn’t want to talk
I guess I should have known
I put everyone’s priorities
Before I place my own
I gave everything
I have nothing else
So when I say goodbye
I do this for myself
