Forgotten Feelings

a moment alone
a moment in time
a being, an individual
taken from us
scaring us back to
what we hide as real



so white it can be
molding it to what you want
it falls from the heavens above
to grace our presents

hiding, dodging
displaying the ways we hide
shoving it aside and covering it
with the ways we want

stop, can you feel it
cant you feel them looking
the way they stare
putting pressure upon our lives
squeezing us into a mold
forming us into the same
expecting us to follow
the ways They want
it wont, shall not work
for the way we should be
dies within these years
and becomes forgotten
show the cause
unveil true problems
that reside in us
as a whole
speak out

is what we're doing false
or is it just falling apart
was it destined to fail or
was there a hand in it
a blockade
refusing to let us pass
take what you can
don't look back
the fallen bridge
is done with

it sits on my shoulders
weighing me down
bearing down on me
it's always reminding me
of what, who i am
hiding myself to be true
but true bay be false
and the false that has become
is forcing to the surface
to become itself, to make truth
no longer may the hidden lie waiting
consuming my thoughts
it creates war and
makes my body
tremble with anticipation
of the possible outcomes
that shall follow
only one path
it may choose
to flow upon
which one is uncertain

honesty can't look
you in the face
while secrets stare
you in the eyes

i want change
but can not find it
my hands are empty
unable to grasp
the confusion that
my mind leaks
it can not be found
darkness enshrouds
my thoughts
and closes in
fight back i must
to persevere and
come out on top
to reveal who
lays inside this
now empty shell

what was once ecstasy
is now darkness
the sun shines no more
and is covered
by clouds of sorrow
