Sunday Afternoon Coffee

The truth is, I like being alone and having space to stretch my arms
I hate the way my mind moves when it’s alone like it has been attention starved

I haven’t been sleeping well I keep having awful reminders of previous hate
I get scared to think your mind is not something you can ever escape

I am surrounded by men but the one I am with pays me no attention
Can I do better then this? I think I can do better then this.

I have a constant feeling that I am wasting my time
How could it be better spent? I wish something would give me a hint

Would you miss me if I was gone? Better yet
Would I miss you….

They Say..

They say you can only go as fast as the person in front of you
I say for your own good, get the hell out of my way
They say you are a product of your surrounds & you are who you hang with
I say I have no friends & am alone all the time, does not mean I am nothing
They say practice what you preach
I say practice before you attempt to teach.

The Best

I can't give up the best of my anymore
I'm convinced it no longer exists
The best of me?.....What does that even mean?
The soft part that no one See's...the vulnerable piece of me?
How did that get defined as best........best
Most painful when broken?
I hope you know you got the best of me..
I believe you stole it, took it away..
Just the same...
I wont feel this again.

Screaming

I wonder if one day I’ll be heard
I could scream so loud
And I know you won’t hear a word

What does it take to catch your thought?
Just one thought…
If you mentioned me when I am not around
Or wrote me a letter….my heart would pound

I’m losing my voice for you
I love the way are….but do you?
Do I just not have that certain something?
To consume just one though of yours

I wonder how often I am taken for granted
Do you even hear a sound?
Maybe I’m not aware…
Maybe I went about this all wrong
Maybe you don’t really care
I should stop screaming my song
No matter how loud I get…it’s just so faint to you
If I died, what would you regret?
Or would thoughts of me finally consume you?
