Trust IssuesThe endless possibilities/
Of trust issues begin with only/
One trust to be broken or betrayed/

TensityI sometimes wonder about my dreams
I wanted to fulfill, but it's the themes

MasksSo many people go through life/
Wearing masks/
To pretend they are someone/

COUNTERINTUITIVECOUNTERINTUITIVE

without even a marked territory
to claim as my own!
How I wished I had access
to a mattress to lay my weary body
or a ceiling under my head!

As they stare at themselves still playing pretend
Blamed for an...
