Maybe Sadness Is My Happy Place

In the dark I sit 
All emotion 
No motion 
Will there ever be light

I’m still on the outside
A hurricane inside 
Tryna control my sky, land and sea
Give me the white flag 
I’m ready to set it free

Will a flower ever grow from here 
Will I ever blossom or merely disappear 
Into the sunken bags under my eyes 
Get me out of this whirlpool 
I can’t breath 
I’m drowning in my own tears

100 voices and not one is glad
Maybe sadness is my happy place 
I need a ticket pass away from here 
Even if it’s for a day
The weight is too much
To wait is too much 
99 emotions and they’re all the same 
I’m tired

The New Normal

Don’t feel sorry for me 
I already feel sorry for myself 
You can’t love me 
I don’t even love me 
Even if you leave me
I left me a long time ago 
There’s nothing you can do to me 
That I haven’t already done to myself 
Other than love me 
Can you love me

You Cannot Leave Me Too

Awake or asleep 
You still play through my mind. 
You empty every tear duct and lift both corners of my mouth. 
Whether I’m happy or sad 
You fulfill and reach every inch
Circulating, dispersing, filling until I’m full. 

When words fail me, misbehave and sentences cannot stand in line
I look to you to say what I cannot
To put together my thoughts. 
To relay what I am failing to convey
Why can’t I connect the dots?

Your existence is bigger than I will ever be
Without intention you capture my heart. 
I use you when all else fails
Everything always fails. 
Hear me when I say 
You are one I cannot live without
I cannot live without you,
Music.

The New Normal 2

Don’t love me 
Before I love myself 
Don’t shout your praise and affection 
When I just learned how to smile 
Don’t note my talk as it doesn’t match my walk just yet
Give me time 

Keep yourself to you 
I’ll try and keep me 
Don’t look my direction when I’m still trying to find my own reflection 
Don’t look at me 
Please don’t see me 
Give me time 

Don’t love me 
Yet

Love Me Back

Why don’t you love me

We’ve been through highs and lows 
I’ve been black and blue 
I’m the only one who knows 

The good and the bad 
Are all engraved in my heart
There’s nothing I don’t know 
Just give me a chance

Hug me 
Smile back 
Take a second to look at me 
You’re all I have 

Please love me

Don’t rush to pass the mirror 
I’ve carried your weight in love
See me 
See you
You’re perfect 
And you’re loved 
By me 
By you 
Love me back
