I hate the place we’ve come to thrive in

The social misconception that feeds the flame

Believing the lies that convince us of failure

We’ve become the enemy, by choice alone.



They say ’No one’s comfortable with who they are

Your own skin will never be enough.’

If we listen to their tales of fate and misery

What good will we bring to our young?



Smear that black eyeliner across your lids

Run your mascara down your cheekbones

Swear to the heavens, confess all your sins

Wish away all your dreams with a cut across your skin



I beg of you, just forget me

As I’m running quickly toward the ocean

Screaming for forgiveness from the ones that need it most

I give you my heart to use as you will



And I scream with all my breath expelled

Against the words that have been spoke so ill

With one final intake, I promise to make my peace

I can’t stand it, can’t stand what you do to me.



I think I like you

I think I love you

I think I want you

I think I need you



Here, take my heart.

Covered in band-aids and tearstains.

I really liked this. Good work. Interesting theme. It seems to show a great deal of anger and desperation.

[Adderall Sleep]

It's not about a place I love.

[Bioku luna]

I like it a lot.

Well to me this seems to convey a barrage of emotions yet affection is the dominant one, but it seems that anger and jealousy are also present. With a multitude of feelings this one should go far on so few words.
