I can't think straight,
or left, or right, parallel, perpendicular,

intersecting, intertwining, incomplete,

because Sudoku was never one of my strongest points,
better with cards and crosswords,

But my head keeps pounding,
spinning, twirling, and all the
adverbs, adjectives, nouns, and
prepositional phrases in between.
So narrow minded, stretched truths, concealed lies,
concealer of which I am short supply, need to buy more,
unspoken opinions of voices I don't recognize,
fears and frustrations never spoken,
only criticized by the incapable, don't look in the

Anything for that sunshine, I hope you understand.

A gift from no one for always being strong.
A gift I'll be, from me to you.
But you can't just shatter and stay that way.
These things go by, and this shall, too.
It's days like this when I stay up in bed.
It's days like this when I wish you were here.
Tomorrow will be just another day.
We'll go on with our lives with masks on our faces.

My painful days are numbered,
They are through, for now,
And now, I have time to become accustomed to the dreaded anxiety,
Can't you see?
I wish my mind would be numbed,
But what then?
I instead feel fear,
It makes me cry aloud,
I am not ashamed of my emotions,
I have felt the passion and anger callus my heart,
I have experienced the high of dopamine and the suffocation of the people around me,
What more is there?
Let us find out,
My mind has been immobilized, unable to be conscious of thought,
My eyes have been blinded though my brain could think clearly,
And there was once a time that both my eyes could see and my thoughts went through my t

Reap What You Sow
I am high in the sky,
on a cloud,
looking down,
I can see,
the cold dead earth
it seems as though nothing can grow there.
But I know,
I know,
from the seeds of my numbed heart,
I can plant them to grow destruction,
so i rake across the gray forsaken dirt,
so it can really feel the pain and the hurt,
cant you see?
I am planting the food,
that will damn me out of heaven,
and nothing can stop me,
nothing can stop me now.

that you reap what you sow,
Yes they wrote down in the book,
that you reap what you sow,
and they will preach of what you grow,
while you receive your pain and agony,
so I will spread out my bitt

The reason I don't sing happy songs
If the world was a happy place,
I would sing happy songs, everyday,
If the world was a little bit more perfect,
I would make the sun shine,
I would make the rain come another day.
If only the world was more at peace,
people would want to smile,
even if they were going through something,
time would stop,
and then we wouldn't need to worry,
money wouldn't exist,
cause we wouldn't need it,
oh, if the world, was a bit more happy.
Maybe mothers wouldn't be so easily unsettled,
and fathers wouldn't turn away,
if the world could afford mistakes,
let us learn, and do it over again,
I would be happy...
The world would've been happy enoug
