Wonder above and drown below in the sea of countless faces, all the stories that we never know walking passed our eyes cast down tell me, if I cried, if I begged for help would you hear the sound? or would your filters just let it be drowned out? In the night, under stars walking through shadows in a fragile state remember back to that dance when they all laughed and I cried when I had to sit and wait alone outside in my then young hands my face I hid it's not the start of my troubled times From behind the screens we've been teased and tormented to points of self-harm behind the headline scene a family cries daughters, friends, and sons left to die Taught that its not okay to ask for help in your fatigue you will just walk away attention accusations, why is that so wrong? we are gardens withering, just trying to be strong

An Apology 05:00
An apology, I've heard it been said that it's never too late but does this ring true if the one whom it's owed is now dead Your ghost haunts me now all the words left unsaid Let's talk about it next time there is always next time except when there's not Is my misery a curse? is it just lessons learned? and I've tried hating you but I know it's my fault If our clocks were visible would this be how it is? with heavy baggage I will try to press on just know I'm sorry you're gone so sorry you're gone......

Interstate 90 seeking perpetual night into the haze of dread so thick it makes my breath short dense as the fogs that envelop the playground that we shared Like gunshots that shatter Euclid nights to steal a life away so were the moments I had before those eyes so were the moments I felt among those hands In arms we drew breaths and plans together casting dreams from rooftops to passing trains red line adventures that culminate in the final moment of magic I ever felt head light approaches, pierce the night it stole us away Should I have kissed you then? could I have kept you here? Your ghost lingers here now impeding and tortures me separated by three-thousand miles and roughly twelve-hundred days Where and when you finally saw ocean I have yet to find my peace but I continue speeding on seeking that perpetual night

Memories I've stowed away for in a life of misery they are the ones that steal my sleep Nocturnity, a curse of dark where any shaft of light washes me with painful first degree burns Whether it comes forth as Madeline and her tiny hand in mine Or christmas eve with snow on the ground wondering what will be under the tree They were so few and far between isolated as fallen stars in the sea There comes a point in our withering sustenance appears now as mere cruelty so hard now to find pleasant memories suffering has become sterility pandoras box waits, but is locked tightly blindly I call for the one with a key Until they arrive I will lay on dark, wet stone and try to find stoicism in this grave so cold
