Hello

by Katherine - Aquarius

Lost in this world
just like most everybody else

sorry I can't see any of them in my fight
I'll just have to win by myself.

Vote for me
I tell no lies
no promises
because I don't know how my mind will change
in the next few days.

I like my milk cold, not freezing
just like my gaze
add a twist of some mysterious ideas
chaotic thoughts

dilluted speaches

and here I am

full of things to say
and rarely ever opening this mouth
I leave so much to my pen.

Sometimes I get these aweful cramps in my hand
I wish they'd go away
but I wonder if it's a sign.

All my emotions
hold me back
but they are not meant to be kept in a little box
under my bed
not meant to be ignored
not meant to be destroyed.

Look at what I've become because of them
something so sensitive and creative
and so vulnerable and afraid in one.

I am holding Pandora's box
let it out
It's not meant to be kept inside.

Sometimes I blame myself
actually most of the time
but anyway
I feel like I'm getting myself in too deep
where the air is to high for me to reach
but it's always been right there for me
I was just holding my breath.

Clenching my jaw too tight
when I sleep
yeah I guess I'm frustrated
confused

maybe I should speak my mind-
but then I reason with myself
saying it's not worth it
or that it would expose me
even though I already feel
naked before the world to pick me apart.

Maybe I
should just stop thinking
but then again I've tried that already.
Hello insanity.

Hello sane.
