I quit
Not because I'm lazy
Not because I'm bored
Because of the others
Because they don't believe in me
Because my wings are clipped by the ones "trying" to help me fly
She's
Out of my league and I know it.
Too far ahead for me to reach.
Rapidly speeding up.
Getting farther and farther ahead.
Never stopping to wait.
Going to leave me here
alone
all
alone.
But she's my everything!
Dead faces
They're everywhere
Waiting to be heard
Waiting to be noticed
Waiting to be loved
Being tirelessly ignored
Getting hurt
Saying "I'm fine"
Perfect impostors of themselves
Painting on their painful fake smiles each morning
Washing them off each night
Dead faces are not fine
They are bombs waiting to go off
They are towers made of glass
Unnoticed beauty
So very easy to crack
So very perfect...
