Sometime in our lives
in those fragile moments
we realize:
Someday we're gonna die.
In those seconds
something peels away...
Should I close my eyes
for this
screaming at the top of my lungs
he's moving closer
under the mistletoe
I'm gonna fucking explode
rush?
Maybe,
we're all just children inside.
We fear everything and nothing.
What am I waiting for?
You?
You, it's always you.
And I put my life on hold
for a life with you.
But you never want to share.
I'm frozen. Time is moving
but I'm still between the cracks.
-People always
name their pets
after kids
they're never gonna have-
Once fear and paranoia
is in your head
you can't get it out.
Drill into the deep chasms,
find that button to push
to set you off
into a new dimension:
INSANITY.
IS thinking too much crazy?
Overanalyzing?
Maybe I belong in an institution.
Straight jackets seem friendly,
they always hug you back.
Maybe, love and life
is crazy.
Can realizing truth
drive you to the horrifying
ends of the earth?
(I'm dangling over the edge
one thought
and I'll plummet.)
When you tell me
"It's over"
I can finally stop.
Stop waiting for your permission
to let me live.
(But I'll always be
dead inside without you.)

Brilliant write dear. I really love the emotions here. There's a lot of sadness and it comes out so vividly. I can relate to a lot of the emotions here.
Thanks so much for entering.
