Oh listen, my desperate heart
At the young night Do not watch
Do not wish & do not start.
I'm powerless, injured & crucified—
Jittered, oft died & cried in yellow light.
Let not a thing be your wish
Don't wish for a thing
Don't.

scream at me
and I will hate myself
manipulate me
and I will do the same
beat me
and I will cause my own scars
just speak to me
and I will listen and learn
all this extra is unnecessary.
The sunlight finally streaming in
Through the blinds and shades
The warmth I feel on top my skin
A warmth that never fades
That lightens up our planet
All the oceans and the waves
It shimmers in the distance
But is vacant from our caves
The sun in all its glory
In every shape and phase
That shines down from the heavens
In the form of rays
Try to keep him safe
Try to keep him moving
A gazillion exoplanets
Postcards on the run

Basketball today
The tournament is looming
Buffalo Wild Wings
Please give up your guns

               un pequito fun

Let it go
Get over it
Life moves on
The words echo
From all corners of the world
No one ever understands

Just need to open up
To ask for help
But even when they listen
From behind judgemental eyes
No one ever understands

Every time a door closes
They say another opens
But lately they just slam shut
No one ever understands

I'm dying of thirst
In an ocean of salt water
No one ever understands

Will this self pity ever end
No one ever understands

No one ever understands

This is one of the few times I found some symbolism beyond the raw emotion.  The words are still raw, but look deeper
