Favorite Quote:
Fall in love or fall in hate; Get inspired or be depressed; Ace a test or flunk a class; Make babies or make art; Speak the truth or lie and cheat; Dance on tables or sit in the corner; Life is divine chaos. Embrace it. Breathe. And enjoy the ride...

My eyes bleed
when thoughts of you arise.
I've got a fire pit in my stomach,
no longer am i sane,

Spiraling down into nothingness

I must seem okay to you
because you sit there and smile

You laugh at my misery and
smirk at my beaten soul

All this time i've spent
under your hard cold eye
has diminished me,
it has softened my voice

I've let you turn me into a fly,
something so miniscule,
ill eventually dissapear with the wind

Unless i runaway. Runaway with the revenge you've built upon.

This was a random writing. I was watching the show Hoarders, and this is what came out of the feeling i got.
