i hate being a mopey bitch sometimes

riddled with doubts/that would make Atlas Quiver/

my shoulders cant bare the load/death doth not hither/

fast enough/mister reaper why havent you come for me?/

i feel like the undead/walking amongst the pink and pretty/

 

i have a girl/but i dont believe her panegyric like praises/

going off about how im perfect/its like i dont hear it/my face is/

looking away/my gestures paint a not so certain portrait/

of my thoughts of us not making it/but see the doubts, my mind, does not support it/

 

i get to pragmatic/i look at our relationship like chess/

she had a good upbringing/mine...ehhh/no the best/

shes never been hopless/while i feel it lying homeless/

on my friends floor/copin/with what feels like a will thats broken/

 

the baggage is weighing down/from those who have landed and left/

some of there unwanted bullshit/they passed it on i guess/

you see im a self loathing nice guy/who just wants to be loved/

and she is doing a great job/and ill see that better/if i just let go of my troubles and just trust/

What comes to mind is: "in order to see light, we need to face the darkness". Nice write, readmy5tuff!


...and he asked her, "do you write poetry? Because I feel as if I am the ink that flows from your quill."

"No", she replied, "but I have experienced it. "
