violence. that's the legacy you left me.
you taught me that well, in anger I plunged headfirst.
i can't stomach the pain of remembering your fucking face.
make me dig my own grave where I'll bury my self-esteem.
forget me and leave me alone in a room.
waiting, rotting, scared to death of you,
i'm telling myself again and again
"i'll never be enough. I'll never be enough in your eyes".
fading into your shadow, i embrace violence.
bury my self-esteem.

smiling, silent, you were staring into the void.
lifeless eyes, lost in your mind.
memories were long gone.
the world was a paiting whose colors blended.
shards of the past were collapsing in your head.
familiar faces faded away.
you left us as an empty shell.

on the verge of no return, exhausted,
i dream of a day without wars with myself.
longing for what used to be,
i'm suffocating in these walls i've built.
this room ain't home.
counting my wounds, counting my hours,
i wait for a moment to breath.
respire.

poison

your words are
insects that
crawl into
my flesh
draining me
until there's
nothing left.
i can hear
your voices
sinking into
my bones
for more.
did you know that mere words can kill ?

you never left
00:43
|

|
wallowing in misery
afraid to get closer
i let myself sink for years
wishing to be forgotten
but you never left.
you saved me.
i'll try to be worthy
of the time you have spend
convincing me that i
can believe in myself.

Dear mother, there is so much to say.
i could smile, fake a laugh, like always.
but that's the way it's been for too long.
how did we end up like this ?
how could you not see that I was hurt ?
i wish you'd protect me
not push me away and bury me.
why did you do this to me ?
And every night I stare at the ceiling thinking what a horrible son I am. I know how much it hurts you but I don't even regret it. There's not enough room in my heart for this.
And I don't know how to talk to you anymore, how to tell you everything I'm holding inside. The more I search, the more I'm afraid. Afraid of the violence of my thoughts, of the dagger in your heart that would be my words. Maybe nothing will ever be the same after this. And yet, nothing could be more sincere.
