You

You shine faster then i can glow.

That leaves me here with nowhere to go.

i wish i could have seen the look on my face,

When i thought i was winning but in the back of the race.

Stuffed animals and darkness can't put me to sleep.

i need my medicine to kick in fast and deep.

If you ever see me happy, you should probably know.

It's just a mask, happiness isn't how i roll.

Like a turtle, i find much comfort in my shell.

What are memories other then broken dreams from Hell.

how is it that many of your poems connect with me so deeply? i've a story locked inside that i can't really tell, but it's my loss and my continuation of love wasted.

you're a wonderful poet.
