Cycle

by Seth - Pisces

Throw it out, keep it in
my emotions cut me, razor thin
I don't know how or why to give in.

It won't be long before I crumble to fate,
visions of angels wrapped in beautiful hate
as expectations that drown me quietly deflate.

While I stagger, weak and weary
push you away, wanting you near me,
with bright lights in my face I can't hardly see.

Touch your face, feel your eyes,
immune toward my inner cries
the truth is a color I thoughtfully dispise.

A thousand fingers dipped in red
cover my mouth and blanket my head,
if I continue this cycle I'll wake up dead.

Reason for writing:

    thank you for reading.
