Cry
When you close your eyes, do you imagine flowers?
Or do you close them holding your tears for hours
The night before you were supposed to smile
Today your eyes open, a mask upon your mile
You’re scared of dark times, but you refuse to let go
Cry my friend, let the world know
It’s ok to not open your eyes
Listen to your heart, you really need to realize
Check yourself before you make any decisions
Mistakes will create you more divisions
If you need to rest, let it be
But don’t forget who’s with you, just open your eyes and see
Why do you waste precious time on diamonds that don’t shine?
Which girl are you going to come back to that gives light when you cry
These lies man, it’s getting to you
You want acceptance when you can’t even preach
No microphone or rhythm on your street
Only electric on your avenue is the 2 minute satisfaction
You’re a waste of time man,
Calling yourself a man when you couldn’t give a ****
On the other hand, you could move to a new experience
Environments follow you forever, remember this
Regardless of your credit or situation
Can’t beat it, can’t save it? Deal with it
You could’ve had it all
The doors were open but you threw the lock away, the prize away, the ones away
Say, do you feel better about yourself now?
I hope you do,
Allow it on yourself
Not a finished project but I thought it’d be nice to post. Final result is coming soon, thanks for stopping by :)
I walked down the poets boulevard
I heard nothing but sad  songs
Words unable to come along
Empty words with tons of ink
To gather their thoughts, and what to think
I step over to see a man in a window
He’s about to end it with a blow
He thinks his hand was just a show
But tell me, what is the reason
To become so low
But so loyal to tragedy
Walking up, the one looks at me
Laughing while crying, but no emotion to see
Believe me when I say, the words he wrote were clear as day
But foggy his vision was, it led him to troubled starts
As I reach my door, an intense feeling grows on me
A heart tore apart, or a new breath to start
I feel empathy, but there is no symphonies
A sympathy for nobody else ,only within themselves
It’s just a sad song
A place I cannot hide or describe
Sad poets with no words to decide
Whether it’s true or fiction
Still working on it but felt confident to release it for now :)
I don’t know what I’m going to say
Emotional blockage, it’s here to stay
I’ve been waiting for a moment, I’m not ok
Letter was awful, I lost my ways
I need to accept, that things do change
Hall of shame, from the hall of fame
I can’t keep going, when I hear your name
2 couples together, it drives me insane
I hurt so many, birds out of my cage
Swan dancing to the ground
A last resort all those found
The King of Queens is now the jester of spades
Why I do mess up everything
I have desperate urges to reach out back to you
But our similarities became our differences
Maybe that’s why you went long distance
It’s my fault, I ask for your knowledge and forgiveness
I know that things went differently
I broke our rules
Now I’m hurting without you
Time has healed me from obsessive activities
But sometimes it leads to dark tendencies
My choices led to false fantasies
The rumors are now insecurities
I pray for another beginning
But this is all a fable, never a bed time love story
It’s my reality, I wish to hide from
Curtains are closed, the shitshow is done

Tomorrow is like a broken promise
A heart that can stop as soon as it happens
A lovely song, or lonely lullaby a place where all can hide
Tears awaken with the family’s traditions but can easily be confused with ill intentions
Condition with dark energy of those who fool thee
A nightmare awoken from a bedtime story
That’s why most of us pray, yesterday we drink, others due dates are paid, what can I say, it was a very good day
Morning happens when you wake up from sleep, or tomorrow gives you a set pair of wings
Nicholas Naylor Oct 2024
I have nightmares about this
I can’t keep myself awake
Mistakes I make
It’s just a business
No forgiveness
Humble yourself at my request
So my nightmare comes, more at best
I apologize for my ignorance
But this is an original experience
I want one dream, love and affection
But it won’t stop, it needs to happen
Is this hell? Or purgatory
Maybe next time, what’s your story?
