i once spoke with an air of intelligence.
it was like i knew something about the world.
i once laughed with a whole heart.

there is a tingle running down my spine
when i start thinking of you
there is a softness in my harsh voice
when i am talking to you
there is excitement in my dull eyes
when i see you coming around

But I find what you say priceless
They say actions mean more than words
But you leave me stunned by both
They say promises can sometimes be empty
But you have always left me full . . .

I have been knocked out
But I am still in the race
I have locked you out
But you are still outside the door
I have brought him in
But he still lives in the shadows

until you noticed me
it was nothing
until you approached me

in these moments i feel alive

The smoke twirls from the mouth piece
Laughter replaces the frown
Your eyes become wide
I watch you try to kill your demons
The smoke fills the air
Toxic wasted floating around my face
Your eyes are pools . . .

Each keystroke tells my story.
Fingers dancing across this board,
Word by word I let go of this weight.
Are these burdens then a gift?
The pounds placed on my shoulders,
Shape shift, fall onto these pages, . . .

heart cramps,
forgetting how to
accurately beat.
stomach acids tidel wave,
bulging up into
a dry throat.

on the dirty floor,
amongst the piles of greasy wrappers,
the stained articles of clothing,
and all thoses items i swore i needed,
lays the only thing i ever really needed.

you can only try so hard
then it is all left to fate
you can only fall so hard
then it is all left to your own will
you can only love so much

Suddenly I found all the answers
I saw you sitting in that maroon car
My footsteps were small and feeble
An audible heartbeat, sweaty palms
