─━━━━━━⊱❍⊰━━━━━━─
Your words are suffocating,
Drowning me.
Why can't you be contemplating
Why we only used to be?
They're pulling me down
Until I hear but static.
You ignore my frown.
Why do I feel so pathetic?
All you hear
Are the things I don't want you to,
The things I want to disappear.
Because if you knew
What I really meant,
More than one heart
Would have to mend.
So I drown in silence
And you don't even notice
My absence.
You believe me to be
Like a lotus.
While all I want
Is to be free.
I am not restricted to a pond.
I am no beautiful.
My soul is rotten.
My colors are dull.
All I seem to have gotten
Are bruises and scars.
Only because I kept ignoring my stars.
The static of your voice,
A quiet murmur.
I don't have a choice.
As the water's grip on me
Only continues to get firmer.
You still don't see,
Probably don't want to,
That I stopped listening.
Everything we've been through
Was a constant fight.
A fight amidst darkness,
A fight to see the light.
We tried to harness
What others call love.
Yet, we never succeeded,
Never had enough,
Always felt as if we needed
Only one more spark,
Although it never was that problematic.
Felt as if we were stepping in the dark,
Although there only was too much static.
