Lone

I sit here alone in vessel full of bodies
Find me in my head that’s where I’ve been all along
I’ve got a grip on reality
and it’s all so lonely
Lost in here
Flowing away from here
and sinking into me
Window pain memories
finally catching up to me
the lines keep moving on
the road doesn’t know my name
I keep staring into the dark
with my face against this cold glass
another night goes by
and you still don’t know me
I wake up in another town
and leave this all behind
I had every chance to make this right
but you didn’t deserve it
This was always a dead end

It all started to make perfect sense when you left me frameless
A picture worth a thousand lies
A memory of my best times
Taken away by vacant minds
New Jersey was a good cry and the moment I realized a disconnect
There was a chance I had to leave and forget
I wanted to give it all back but you didn’t want to believe me
You were Counting currencies in obscenities
It really left me thinking twice about generosity
Undertones of sincerity can’t be mistaken when I’ve been nothing but a hindrance
I must be going crazy because I was never raised to treat someone like you do
Destructing ethos for levity
I buried myself to escape anxiety
When I should have opened up
I kept digging
Are you sitting down
I don’t want you here
You didn’t plant any seeds
Those words haunt me
You didn’t fight for me
Don’t you know you were the only one to scoff at me
Pictures of wedding day never see the light of day
I never meant to burden a soul
Since all I do is take
I’ll give this to you
Take this with you
You need it more than I do
You don’t give and get from the less fortunate unless you leave with what you did

Fox Follow

I know who I am and it’s harrowing
how such compassion and heart
can be overlooked
This is not boast or pride
This is not ego or strife
For what it’s worth if anything at all
It’s the perpetual
My refuse an engraved mind
with nothing to lose
I deserve no greater respect
Only equal if dealt
Fox follow the trail but leave no tracks
I am the predecessor
Fox follow the fowl but hear no sound
I am the predecessor
Fox turn around
Erase me from your book of tabs
I want no part of callous friendships
and a mirage of acceptance
I tried to be more than a hire
I’ll go my own way
As we part I never even existed

Blue constant
Wake up from your nightmares
Give me all your dreams
(blue entity of the future)
Revisiting entity of the future
Returning to haunt versions of a former self
Wake up from your nightmares
With gray eyes of resilience
You won’t take my incentive
A thriving glow coursing my veins
You won’t take my character
The only right to my name
Disappear with all your ghosts
Human interactions lost
Go from which you came

Meridian

I’ve been through incredible lengths
to get here
Every choice I made derived of this
Surrounded in hypotheticals
revolving in content
losing all I had
was never my intent
Misused words and secret valentines
submersed beyond submission
in golden water lines
Reaching for an answer
to pull me to the top
held by an anchor tied in figure eights
without a single knot
It’s all in my head
Girl in red so cool
I’d drive all night to get to you
Something changed the day we met
the life I had I’d soon forget
I knew it was you
The day we met
And on that day I saw my fate
Face to face
a love so selfless
The kind that keeps you awake
I never want to sleep again
I did enough
I’ve had it rough
I know I’m home
I’m only my best when I’m with you
If I had known, I’d do it again
