sigh and...

Sigh

a thousand meanings
one word forgotten
a sigh,
a smile turns into a frown,
deep inside,
you cannot hide,
that something is missing
I do not belong in this picture for two
in this picture with you
the others can see it
and don't hesitate to point it out
the source of my doubt
I stay close to you
watching one become two
what will i sacrifice next
what's your bet
will I sell my soul
to save yours?
or die cold and alone
knowing that even if I tried
I have done no good

Everyone's Drowning

Adieu, adieu,
I say to you
I'm tired of running
knowing you're not coming
you stumble
I would gladly take your fall
but you fall by yourself
not really wanting my help
my passion combining both,
fury and worry
swirling together love and hate
my puppy is sad
destroying himself from the inside out
never accepting who he is
whether it be monster,
angel,
or another nameless fiend of the heart
leaning into despair
gasping for air
watching everyone drown
I, myself, struggle for the surface,
but what will I find
once i reach the top
is it really worth it?
everyone's drowning.
and I'm sinking fast
if I don't reach the top
at least let him last
if I perish let it be
because I did it for someone else other than me
I watch my reflection with feigned interest
I watch as the image changes from angel to demon
the other side a demon
they only see the angel on the outside
They think they can see light
a master of illusions am I
a dark cruelty lurks
underneath
selfish
a liar
uncaring deceit courses through my veins,
-----thick
my poison spreads slowly
but drips from every word i speak
It will only get worse
only make you weak
run away, run away,
as fast as you can
save yourself quickly
because I can only cause destruction
of the heart
and of the mind
