Release

I'm restless!

i must confess
my mind is a mess
i have to accept
Reality!

what to do with this energy
the answers not plain to see
it squirms around inside of me
relaxed and calm i want to be
Somewhere Else!

and yet nowhere
the pain i must bare
pretend not to care
but inwards i stare
Darkness!

it blinds my decisions
thoughts like incisions
mind full of visions
with endless revisions
Chaos!

cuts through my mind
no peace i can find
there's not enough time
these thoughts unrefined
Diverge!

bravery

Bravery
arising from the realization
that the feeling of missed opportunities
feels worse
than the fear of failure

Don't deny yourself
burying the truth under shallow pleasantries
with no room to breathe
rots under the paper thin social graces

In the fog of the unknown

standing up for your decisions
taking quiet action not reaction

Bravery
arising from calm action
expressing feelings regardless
of the outcome

must resist pareidolia
cant react to imagination

for that's certainly insanity

peel it back

deep down inside
there's something you hide
you don't want anyone to know
so you don't let it show

you are angry

you hide behind
a satirical smile
but your eyes betray you
your eyes betray you

a twitch

a pause

i can see through that facade
you pretend to smile
the anger it festers inside
I don't wanna be around
when it tears your wall down

Fear The Destroyer Of Dreams
