Cardboard Boxes,

life

seems fake

sometimes

you know?

can you

believe

the things

you knew?

if you

deny

the things

you hide

you might

just find

you’re holding

demons

inside.

Everything I do

Has me written all over it

I stain the very air

The very moment

Never miss a Monday

Voiceless voices

Amongst a scattered world

all you do is lie and deceit

don’t you know an eye for an eye

is a bad habit? so keep the receipt

i need them to see,

but this is deeper than me.

try having a secret to keep

with a backstabbing grit in your teeth

but want the whole world to love you

as their favorite mystery piece

how can you blame a single person you meet.

i’m no angel you see

i fly high with devils

born with no wings

my love embezzled

by impermanent things

we are all sinners unique

and purpose we seek

so keep the ground on your feet

because we’re all here fighting gravity

don’t become a victim of yourself

you control everything you do

just do something you idiot

i'll give it to you later,

I promised i'd do better,

we act like we are strangers, when we aren't together.

should I call now or later?

I'm struggling on paper,

the only thing that changes her mind, is

the weather

so I'll create lightning,

and destroy the things I'm fighting,

I am no longer hiding,

this storm deep inside me.

-b

And what do I do with all of this unexpressed love?

here’s my glass cup

fill it up, with your love, my love

she’s calling last call

and i can’t get enough

drunk on subliminal things

stumbling when i hear your name

such a lovely sound
