Just not...

This one speaks for itself.


I knew it all along I was flawed

No not broken, like the wings of a grounded bird

Flawed by design and not by choice

Looking into the sky for answers

Expecting one to hit me in the face

Leaning far enough to tilt but not far enough to fall

Strong enough to cry just not strong enough to scream

Slipping from day to night, dark enough to see nightmares

Just not dark enough to sleep

Well enough to breathe just not enough to speak

Overwhelmed to the point of suffocation

Feeling that familiar lump inside my throat

The swelling of the tears and the burning of the pain

Emotions running high but just beneath the surface

Anger, agony, guilt, all pain

I will always be the victim of my thoughts

I will always be accomplice to my death

Can’t escape from myself

That kind of freedom is always just outta reach
