Why do I try
To appease with lies
Searching eyes
Judging my life?
Why do I lie
To those who care
To make myself feel better
With a spiteful prayer?
A never ending circle
But something changed
Trust me though,
Not for my gain.
I lost someone, I can't forget
The hate and anger
I've had towards them
I'm sorry, I say
At the skyline who
Could care less
How I feel
The colors soothe me
Remind me of times
When all that mattered
Was expressing my mind
I love those things
To remind me of days
Of when it all
Was a blissful haze
Porch swings and puppies
Ice cream and chilli
Late nights with the stars, imprisoned
Though, by growing inward scars
I lost interest
I felt pain
Someone came along;
They took it all away
Now I sit in hateful reminisce
Wanting all that old, chill bliss.
I miss everyone, I hope they know,
If I could visit them again that I'd sure go
To that little house in the woods,
To the place that told me "If you can, you should."
