i should be
but as the world moves around me
i'm not scared
though i should be

i feel like i fought wars
much worse than the next hour
patience is our friend

quiet

if we're lucky this will all be over
when we didn't have to do a thing

a question of ethics

trickery is rebellion
rebellion requires trickery

i am not innocent
you are not innocent
no one is innocent

how far could you go?
no more empty threats
just a question to think about
at night

when alone with your thoughts

i want to be a soul

is it all ready in me?
i'm trying to feel it
there is a void
its dark but not scary

its relief with no other feeling
where is my soul?
did i lose it along the way somewhere?

like a lost key
like a lost id
its just not in my pocket anymore

wrong to hate someone

there is real hate in my heart
it lies there and laughs
no swear words will expel it
its just laughing at me

the dark darling

she bears unimaginable burdens
but i've seen her free
i've seen her smile
the things that lie behind the tears and sadness
is still something quite beautiful

keep fighting darling
we only lose when we quit

about someone i know

Elijah Almond Apr 2014

i'm sick of you but you're my problem

the anger
it lives somewhere dark
it only comes out
when it is pushed

so i learned the wii

i'm a skinny person
that **** works you out
every muscle is screaming at me but its still fun as hell

i'm going to be a better dancer soon
i can tell you that much
