“Keep Talking”


Show Text

there it is, i see it–
the truth behind your words.
you say things to me;
i get the hidden message.

you see, words are empty
when they aren’t validated
by so many other things.
keep talking.

i hear you;
but it doesn’t mean
that i’ll heed you.

everyone has their own truth;
and, mine is what i’ll follow.
for, no one can really sway me;
unless what they say
rings true to me.

“Thoughts”


Show Text

there she is–
lost in her thoughts, again.
he wants to tease her–rattle her;
even if that makes her yell at him.
he’ll do anything;
just so she stops going back,
to her memories of another man.
but, there he is–lost in her, again.
he wants to hit himself;
kick himself–even when it’ll hurt.
he’ll do anything;
just so he stops drowning in her,
over and over again.
for, seeing her delve in thoughts
of someone else,
hurts so much more
than anything else, ever can.
