Prolongation

Every call I get
I ignore, praying its you
Please make this come true

Gone

Your warmth, now gone cold
I hurt, completely alone
You took everything

Spider

Spider curls up dead
Life has been stomped out of it
I know the feeling

Night Owl

I sit on my branch 
eyes wide and bright
determining when
to burst into flight
chasing one of the many
creatures of the night
that all scamper away 
acting upon fright
I swoop down with elegance
its quite a sight!
“Try imagine being an owl”
“I think i just might”

Empty Or Full

My emotions shift seamlessly, 
as if they were water being poured from one glass to another.
One glass is anger and the other sadness.
Both of the glasses are dirty and coated with grime.

I can be full of anger at one second,
then my glass tilts, pours, and fills the next.
Sadness takes over as the cloudy water reaches the brim.
Wishing I could spill both over empty
Make it go away, I feel nothing
Smash them both to bits

I take a drink 

The glasses constantly take turns filling each other
Dirt being knocked loose is transferred as well
The water gets cloudier and cloudier with each agonizing mood swing
I now reject happiness and see it for what it truly is
A temporary feeling, a tease as I see it.

Its almost a form of torture
I would trade this for physical pain any day	
I’d rather be bleeding than feel like I’m drowning
Someone needs to come and kick these glasses over

Day To Day

Ive been through heartbreak 
I know time will heal
The difference is that 
its not sadness I feel
	
Its a feeling in my gut
it lays deep down inside
That tells me I need you
I can't be denied

I love you so much
and I hate you as well
You make me euphoric 
you put me through hell

I awaken everyday
feeling worse than before
I feel so wrong
down to my core

I punch random objects
I drink the pain away
The worst part of life
is starting a new day

Time isn’t helping
days crawl past
I sit and wonder
if our love will ever last

I pace like a mad man
banging my head
screaming obscenities
all i see is red
