I make myself sad,

So that I can write,

So that I can express the demons 

That are here to fight.


I cry on my bed

All the feelings of dread,

So that I can release

All the toxic things I've said.


I rhyme all the time,

'Cause it's sublime.

But sometimes those rhymes,

Don't wanna shine out.


I scream out my doubts

Just so I don't pout,

'Cause that turns into the equivalent of dope.

And I can't give everything and let it float.


I wanna strangle my words,

And give them a fright.

So maybe I can sleep...

Alone  tonight.
