I’m just now finding out from third party acquaintances
I’m not who I thought I was
The wallpaper stays the same, regardless
The lease has names of the people who wanted more
Chasing comets
Vaguely honest
Leaky faucets
Staying on it
Dreaming lately
T-Shirts fading
Seems like days are few when you’re blue
Water marks on the graphics that seamlessly blend the traffic
Wasting time in the cul-de-sac
Staring at a phone that brings us close yet I’m alone
Basing this off of simple facts
Lately wishing
They’d just listen
Taming tension
Competition
Open letters
Closing statements are better, so much better
I wish the color of my eyes would shimmer bright inside
Late night they only glimmer in the star light, on the outside
Until the sun escapes the grips of darkened blight, sun rise
Every time I get ahead I fall behind
This time seems different
I friended a new lonely beast
My eyes can’t shake it
It hovers over top of me
Glaring and staring
I hear the chatters of its teeth
It wants to take me
Down to the bottom of the sea
There's no going back
Hold your breath as long as you can
(Drown, wake up)
It seems like days are few when you’re blue

Only What You Know

Fake it for the blog post
Tag the friends that you wanted most
Share, wait, stare, repeat
You show what they ask for
Requesting that you take off more
Share, wait, stare, repeat
This is only what you know, who knows what else you don't
Framing stories that will show the lies behind our ghosts
Make it up for the crowd, there's no encore
Stand behind the curtains
First impressions seems so certain
It's your turn to take the stage so please don't make them wait
This is only what you know, who knows what else you don't
Framing stories behind our ghosts
Make them think that you're proud
Feel her filter as she fades away
lens, frames, tint, shades, engrave our graves

Square Heart Shape

I find it hard to recollect a single thing you said
It all goes back to legacies drowning in bitterness
It doesn't matter what I say
I never mattered anyways
Square heart shape
Objects fray
Lately the prism blurs my vision moving forward to
A better since of the distance that congregates my views
Getting used to getting used
Square heart shape
Objects fray
In the silence I sense doubt
Dims of violet seeping out
To cover the colors for now
Until they're fully coated, relaxing hues denoted
Flowing over the borders, filling in every corner
I never thought that this would be so god damn hard
The painting of redemption, the artist goes unmentioned
To every eye that glances, bodies and minds that pass it
Palettes take transit
I am painted out
It's finally happening
Unnoticed
Unwanted
My life's on canvas, cut it out
Cut me out of this square heart shape
I'll fade if not in frame
So cut me out
(Perfect image)
Wading through lifetime
