Confession
As I lay in the dark with my head about to explode
All the thoughts still stir in my mind
The ones I try to be ride of...leave mostly behind
Like the chronic pain in my skull that never ceases to exist
You linger there like a crown of thorns digging deep into me with your pointed tips
I know what I feel for you is just mere infatuation, my fantasy about you and how we would be in my... head
But like the meds I take to numb the pain and stop the throbbing deep into my temples...its only good when the dopamine persists
Even with all the synchronicities around you and me....I doubt God would allow us...how we are... To ever be meant to be
So this is my confession that you will surely never read
How else and where else should I go to bleed
I don't know why I feel so drawn to you but it's kill me
Like everything else in my life that feels like more of a weight than what I imagined it all to be
I bury my head in the dark and when that's not enough the pain keeps it a spark
Reminding me how I'm so blessed with some kind of twisted version of "serenity"
The Amenity of your smile and the touch of your soft beautiful hands I can only embrace in those brief short moments together....or else in just my dreams..
So I guess il just say goodnight and slumber with my inner misery.
