I feel like the jagged reflection of a broken mirror
Just hopelessness and fear
Personal despair closer than it appears
I am thrown into my own gears
It's told to me
That it's so easy
While easy
Is torn apart with a frenzy
And I'm left with nothing
Just emptiness and suffering
To move on I need
Some kind of buffering
But do I want to move on...?
What an impossible question
I must have missed some lesson
But I don't sit alone, it's me and depression

My little garden
I grow dreams and peace of mind.
Dreams are ripe and fresh.
I don't like shopping.
It's easier to lose weight,
fit in my old clothes.
I thought you already knew
that I was a villainous rake
not to love but owning you.
Never honest always fake.
Never giving only to take.
Eat poison from my snake.
My heart was made for breaking
Like soft warm bread,
One piece for the living and one for the dead
And one for the sun in the sky up above
How many times must I fall in love?
One for the mum who I met in the street
And one for the snake that lies at my feet
One for each morning and one for each night
And the rest for the ones who forgot how to fight
Picture this.
The edge of a summers day stretched out along the curve of a beach
Sun beaming out like a heartbeat
Steady and warm from its place on the lip of the horizon
I follow that curve until I find you there,
Warm from the sun
.
The crackle of a driftwood bonfire, that surges a million sparkling prayers out into the deepening sky
does not create anywhere near the amount of sparks as we do
When I catch that soft look in your eye
