Penned down emotions @ 10:37 PM

Can't

Can't find
The key
To the treasure chest
With your heart
Can't find
No rest

Can't deny
Can't close an eye
Sleep overtaking
But I
Can't be sleeping

Can't try
Don't know how
Can't breathe
Can't make no sound
Can't, can't, can't.

Stone

It weighs my heart down like a stone
If the wind blew
Would it take away everything?
Take away all of me

Swollen eyes and pink nose
My sweater, keeping me warm,
Keeping me safe,
Keeping me company,
Giving me love

They look and see
With concern and slight nervousness
It's okay, it's normal,
I tell myself
Let the feathers fall
Let tears fall
Let the birds rest under the narrow shelter
When they need to

But deep inside,
I don't want their pity
I need a place to dwell in
I need a place to hide
From these faces looming, zooming
Into my face

I hear from them
About special fruits
That when its beautiful flower petals fall
An exotic fruit emerges
Colorful or dull,
Exquisite taste
Or poisonous
It flushes your intestines out

Would I stay
Would I stray
Come what may
I'll figure it out somehow.
