The Cornered Boy

There was only one wish,
Where hands can't reach...
Where voices can't seek...
Where eyes can't blink...
...
Back against the wall,
When it's not really there...
Its just shadows at home...
Watching what is to be alone...
And it's...
Carving a new hole...
That's inside my chest...
And it's...
Black liquid that leaks and,
Makes a permanent mess...
So many scars in my sanctuary...
...

I'm the cornered boy,
That's terrified of the room...
Filled with happy mouths,
With hearts full of gloom...
Just awaiting for the moon,
To show up real soon...
So I won't drown in this...
...

Wet cinnamon are my words,
But hate is my ego,
Cracked is my soul,
Searching for better days...
That don't end in stormy nights...
That don't end in stormy fights...
...
Myself and I
Is who I fight...
Myself and I
Is who I hate...
Myself and I
Is why I cry...
Myself and I
Wishes for...
...
