As you sit in your four walled room while everyone is sleeping
Your mind can't seem to forget all the old memories it's keeping
The ones from the back of your brain that travel down to your veins and seep deep within your skin
All you can do is sit there and think.
Think about all the friends you wish you'd never lost
And how this life you chose came with to much of a cost
Think. About all the times the yelling from downstairs that echoed in to the four corners of your room
All the times you had to see pictures of your dead best friend because a drunk driver that night had nothing to lose
Just think.
But these thoughts don't only come at night. No.
They come when your eating lunch with friends
They come when you're finishing up that essay you have to send
They come when your laughing with the people you love
And even when your just trying to give your mother a hug
These thoughts will creep in to your brain like the ghosts that haunt your bones
All the things you wish you should've known
All the yelling and upset tones
These thoughts will spill out of your head like vomit
You try to teach your brain to stop but she never really got it.
But as you sit inside those four walls and think.
Just remember to think about you can be the highlight of a room.
How your smile can the raise the dead from their tomb
How your dimples are like caves people want to explore
And how your intelligence is something people crave and adore
Because with all the bad must come the good
So Just think.
