Draw out the bitterness and depression,
forgive me for making myself a *****, God,
I never meant to hate You or Your Bride,
This is poisoning my soul,
Deprived of Your free love,
You can have the pain,
the regrets,
to make me the best I am,
for You.

Oh these dreams have made my eyes feel hollow and heavy
Ready to lay to rest, regrets and remorse of yesterday
Pulled in every which way 'til pulled no more
Every piece of peace wrought 'til crushed
Meaningless words found meaningless
Words meaning less and less
Lest freedom be found
Alone I walk away
From my self
Myself
//On inner reflection//

Amazing how for no reason//
Everything will remind me of her//
And all this weight I carry on my spine//
Breaks my mind in two//
The past//
The present//
The what-ifs//
The colors of reality move in slow motion//
Just like the memory reel playing in my head//
Lost in thought and talking to ghosts//
These headaches don't go away anymore//
I'm drowning in the deserts of my mind//
Let it go, hold on, it's all the same
Sterile and stoic madness, shame//
I lay down and dream to never wake//
//on her, life, and depression//

Anxiety is depression without the resignation;
the teetering hope on the cliff edge, not knowing if it will fall or right itself.

I used to hope we would be eternal.
Sadly you and I are just nocturnal.

Life whispers to me
love and live
yet death has a stronger voice:
here is what you believe

for the pain of living
is but angst without relief
in the surrender to ecstatic nothing
you would inherit the purest gift.

You’ve tried to protect me from everything
How futile an effort...
You could’ve just told me!
I wouldn’t need it like this!
I crave what you’ve hidden
You’ve applied so much pressure
Wound me so tight
A band about to snap
