The Little Pity Committee

The little pity committee
And I'm the president 
I see everything that's 
Good as a strange gesture just 
to get close to me
Then when I feel they are in my 
hearts they love to tweak it
Rip it, shred it, obliterate it
I thought I could change
But it gets worse
And everytime it gets worse I 
want to cling to someone else 
so they can help me
Yet
I become an even bigger 
burden
And everyone I cling to leaves 
me
I can't deal with this alone
I need someone
My whole life is based upon one 
person
The only person who hasn't 
ripped 
My heart out and skewered it 
with the points of their teeth
And as soon as that person 
decides to change
As will I 
And the rags
The remaining trash of my 
heart left in my soul will yearn 
for a new horizon summoned in 
one word

Death

Nightmares

These nightmares
They Follow me around
Feeding off my fear and 
anguish
Falling in love with my hatred
Repeated everyday 
It changes as it finds more 
ways than one to torture me
From the people I love
To the memories I try to keep
But these nightmares
They fog these memories I claw 
to as 
I bang my head for changing 
the only beloved thoughts of 
my old life 
My old friends
My old thoughts
I lay in my bed
Fetal position 
Trying to comfort myself 
Rocking to the memory of my 
mother's voice 
Why can't I just live back to 
when everything was care free
When I was happy?
When life isn't revolved around 
one prayer that you wish that 
would come true
That would change everything 
for me forever
Is god listening? 
Can he hear my prayers of 
sadness floating like a storm 
cloud to the heavens? 
I cry myself to sleep
Dreaming of the past of my 
faithful memories
But I still wake up
And the nightmares repeat 
again.

Everyday Thoughts

Am I a good friend? Why can't I
Be?
Except
When I try
They ignore me
It's all I can feel
Loneliness 

I've asked before 
"Do you hate me?"
And they still give me
Bitter lies

Am I a good friend?
What did I do wrong?
Why can't I trust your answers?
Why won't you talk to me?

I'm alone in this empty world
I thought I was good enough 
for them
Maybe they will stop ignoring 
me when they see I've
Disappeared
Vanish from mind's eyes

Would they show emotion? 
Would they even glimpse at my 
shadow?

These were my thoughts
Before I made my choice
What happened to me? 
I broke gods grip upon me
A life with no judgement
No sickness
No disappointment 

Why can't everyone do this?
Escape the devils playground
Where he whispers in your ear
Makes you angry
Brings you to your inner being

But here, I can be alone. In this 
corner of space
Beautiful
Vast
Endless joy

I thought I was suppose to 
make everyone see me 
In a new vision 
Of my past

They never game me a chance
That's how cruel they
Can be
They saw me as an ignorant 
fool
They embarrassed me
Bullied me

But now I can laugh at them
As I see them below me

Oh How I Wish It Could Be

If I was not my self
And you were someone else
I'd say so much to you
And I'd tell you the truth
Of as to whom I am
And as to who I want to be
I'm dead in the water
Can't you see?
I'm stuck at the bottom of the 
ocean
No one can get to me
Unless they try 
Unless they figure out how
To lure me out 
I stay hidden
Unfound by you
I'd tell you my life story
If you'd listen 
I'd give you my heart
If you'd take it
But there's no point in trying
Because it seems to me
You don't really care
You have your own future
And as do I
Our lives will never enter twine 
As you push me away
You may not see it
But it's all I see

Our Problems

It's sad
This little part of the world I'm 
living on
And I feel like there are so 
many problems connected here
And I think
Maybe if I move away these 
problems 
These problems
They will evaporate
Like smoke through my fingers
But
These problems aren't 
connected to the place we are 
But are the thought and actions 
we are connected to
Our ball and chain 
Latched to our legs and buried 
in the skin of our bodies
They stay there
Forever
