My Metaphorical Thoughts

When I say "I bleed"

I mean "I speak"

I mean I give you my inside thoughts and dreams

I bleed



When I say "I drown"

I mean "I get lost again"

I mean I get lost in the current of the day

I drown



When I say "I kill"

I mean "I sacrafice my thoughts"

I mean I try to forget what I hate

I kill



When I say "I fly"

I mean "I get away"

I mean I leave this life for only a bit

I fly



When I say "I die"

I mean "I fade away"

I mean I feel like I am drowning

I die



I bleed

I drown

I kill

I fly

I die...

This is my life from the inside

These are my metaphorical thoughts

So now I bleed

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I don't know why I felt I wanted to give away some of my writing secrets, but I did...and there you go...this is exaclty what I mean whenever I say any of those phrases.  Hope that clears some things up a bit.
