Acquainted

May 21st, 2018

Questions spiral through my head
But answers are nowhere to be found
And I grasp on to what I know is real
Because I don’t know what else is around
So what does friendship really mean
Because I know that it’s been defined
But the more effort that I put in
The more I lose my mind
I give out pieces of myself
I’m spreading myself thin
I hand friendship out like a party favor
To have it end quicker than it began
I don’t know how to trust
But I can’t hold myself back
So I tell them how I feel
And they use it as an attack
They call this insanity
As I do it over again
It’s funny when all I wanted
Was just to be a friend

For once I have nothing to say
And everything at the same time
I use my words to pass the day
With thoughts of another rhyme
I watch everyone as they leave
And close the door behind
Then play it back inside my head
Looped in another rewind
I question my worth to have a high price
That no one is willing to pay
So I walk out and close the door
And loop through another replay

Madness

May 2nd, 2018

The people walk by everyday
It’s just something that they do
So I’ll find a quiet place to hide
That is nothing new
I’ll write out all my feelings
But I don’t know what they are
My life is flying by past me
Because I stepped away too far
I feel content right where I am
But I know this isn’t right
I’m pushing back my instincts
Like my need to fight or flight
I found my peace in chaos
I’m immune to all the pain
And as much as this should hurt me
I have never felt this sane
