Corner of a page
Clipped and torn away
Days filled with nothing but complaints
I’m too tired to live another day
Faking a smile to hide the rush
This annoying heartbeat won’t hush
Looking around, searching for a sign
But there’s no answer for this soul of mine
The only thing I let out of my mouth
Was a heavy sigh, drifting south
Drifting through the fog, aimlessly
Floating and vanishing, pointlessly
Exclusive emotions, cold and dry
Idealistic theories coloring the sky
A scripted smile, practiced and neat
Masking the taste of a bitter defeat
That’s how I stayed
Giving up on the game I played
Studying faces, reading the room
Providing the model answer for the gloom
Self-sacrificing, day after day
Just consuming myself, wasting away
The shadows grow, I cover my eyes
Facing the misery, seeing through lies
Standing still, frozen in the cold
Just like the stories that were never told
And so I repeat, silently and slow
This miserable life, with nowhere to go
Buried in guilt, blaming only me
Fading hope that I’ll never see
Lamenting with a self-mocking grin
Deceiving the truth that’s hidden within
A dull, grey heart, caught in the middle
Trying to solve an impossible riddle
If that’s the case, then let it break
Let it crumble for heaven's sake
It’s fine... let it end
"You are who you are
Don't you ever forget that."
"Live for the 'now'."
"Your life is not a prize for someone else to take
This life belongs to you, and you alone."
"Time is limited and precious
Please, carry it forward, and connect it to the future."
