Better

I'm feeling better now that I'm invisible.
I feel connected in a strange way.
You never know what happens to the main character of a book before the end unfolds.
So just wait.
I'll show you what is eating me.
I'm not a cancer.
I'm not a plague.
Not suicidal, depressed, nostalgic or desperate.
We haven't spoke in months or even made an effort to relate on topics which we could conversate while smoking.
You don't even look at me anymore.
I feel like a ghost.
I'm just a boy with a sheet on his head.
I'd rather hide away than try to pursue a cause that only seems just to me and my best friends.
I love you.
But this is where I float away.

Ashes

I fought with you tooth and nail up until the very end where I caved in.
You saw just how unstable I can be.
I guess that's just how it goes, but it doesn't make it ok.
I can't take another sleepless night.
And like ashes, ashes, I just fell apart.
Don't ask me how I'm doing when you already know the answer.
I gave my everything for this.
No purpose.
No Direction.
Nothing to keep me safe.
You were supposed to keep me safe.
Six months and a notebook later, I've been in better shape.
This can't be happening to me.
The effort I have spent and all of the tears that I have cried.
They all lead to nothing.
Whats the use in dragging on?
Well if I bother you so much why don't you get up and leave?
Your stare has got me frozen from my head to my feet.
And like ashes, ashes, I just fell apart.
You're a crook for leaving me with this hole in my chest.
I was sprawling barely breathing, but you still wished me the best.
And like ashes, ashes, we just fell apart.
It's a shame, it's disease.
How quickly I have changed.

It's been almost a year since you turned me into a person I hate.
You might not realize it, but your actions affect people in ways you'll never understand.
But if I place all the blame on you, it just doesn't sit right.
You know I'm self destructive.
Maybe I've dug myself too deep, and now I just can't get out alive.
Maybe I'm just longing for someone to blame.
I just want to point my finger in the shape of a gun.
I'm trigger-happy tonight.
If I ask for forgiveness another time just forget to answer.
It'll be fine.
I'll just need a day to cope.
This image is something that I never would have predicted in my life.
But you can't fight nature.
You just let it win.
I am the ghost of Gloucester county.
My soul runs amok through this joke of a city that's barely on the map.
Every night I search for victims to haunt in their dreams with some long forgotten pictures of me.
So tell me,
Do you know who I am?
This mask is glued on tight.
I'll sit and watch while my brothers fight out in a war that I've created so selfishly.
It was never meant to be like this.
Could you see through me?
