Poem
Somewhere in the Ground Embarrassed to say goodbye Hypnotized by the rhythms and beats of time Where is the truth, you sly lie? Despised by the crowd that encourages sex and crime Lying naked on the wooden floor Scattering with revolting roaches that harass me constantly...they won't leave me alone and eat at me...I groan in pain Wrapping myself in the grief I adore Hopes and dreams fails me now while you gather up brainless excuses...it's a pity that you and I are all alone in the rain Somewhere in the ground, You'll see me there...you'll see me broken down like a beat-up mirror right in front of you ...I'm starting to grow insane... Please don't make a sound You'll notice that you defeated me - you're the winner and I'm a waste of time to you Make me believe I'm somewhere in the sky Make me relieve the distress the heart has concealed for so long Make me believe that I'm above the ground and don't ask why... Hold me, for I will bring out the good in you and be your favorite song Somewhere in the ground Somewhere in the ground Is not where I belong, So don't make me feel insecure Imperfection ain't wrong I'm a flawed individual and my heart longs for a true cure Come and set me free... The load of life is weighing me down again and my shine is fading super fast...am I still your one-of-a-kind gem? I muster up inner glee... Discovering the truth behind lies - they don't last forever and it's a fire that evaporates when water drowns them Mesmerized by the words that slip from your lips...I breathed your words...I breathed your words that I couldn't help but prize Then, I noticed that they are just temporary Reality burns once it touches the skin...I kept waiting for your message to uplift my low spirits - am I your sweet sunrise? Wow, how time flies . . . Flies . . . Somewhere in the ground Somewhere in the ground Is where I'll eventually land Somehow, I've been captivity-bound Unable to make out any sound My fear is as countless as sand I wish you would understand I wish you would care enough to make a stand Because I'm building up courage to accept the truth in goodbyes - In the end, it's reduced to lies I can force myself to smile during tribulations of the deep, But rejection leaves me to weep...weeds are what I reap!! Now, I'm somewhere in the ground Rooted to the spot... Now, I'm spinning around and around Save me before I rot... I need confidence to repair these scars I need to stop placing myself in high bars You got me through some guilt-trips and I'm grateful for your support always I break so easily like cheap plastic...sorry that I'm not your golden nugget I wish you'd stop speaking your mind to the max and live life without regret The heart needs a break, So I'll be lying somewhere in the ground The mind is half awake Listening to nonsense all day and night...I wish I could leave time to spin you 'round and 'round I got you...I got you... I found you out of the blue I crave you...I crave you... Remember me, shining anew? You illuminate me when I am face down on the cement of disheartening woe If we can fly side by side, my soul would entangle with your own...the sun begins to show I was lost in the middle of nowhere until I met you in the twinkling of an eye In my quiet company, I was shivering from the cold of loneliness until I ran into you...you melted away my state of sorrow and I know why
