According to pain

According to pain —

Every day is another lesson to study .. Peace is nothing I have ever achieved .. I do allow myself moments of clarity .. Where I can find a place to rest in ..

Today my depression is so bold .. Finding riddles in everything that unfolds .. Truths are never untold .. How can I bare myself to continue to hold this .. You were so cold ..

I try to avoid getting stuck in the playback .. It’s like I’m under attack .. No need to re- examine what is dead .. Still feelings come in to only re- break my heart .. Life really knows how to tear us apart ..

My intentions are always scattered .. Somewhere these moments are set to be .. You are always free to flee .. Around me management is well advised .. Just cause I’m down doesn’t mean I can’t find the upside .. I’m just capable of expressing feelings from my insides ..

I see no point to hide ..

The only distractions I can afford are the ones that cost everything .. It will be our downfall to doubt me .. I’m open .. No need to lie .. I only hope you know who I am when it’s you and I ..

Lost as I am I can’t be the only one to be able to find me .. Welcome in tribe .. Be yourself not what has become of what you use to be .. We all have a story to tell .. A History of damage .. Keeping it locked up behind walls is your choice .. I love to show off my scars ..

Words flow .. Come in and let it go .. Gathering knowledge .. So you can know you have nothing to fear .. Un break the mold you were first cast in .. Let me know what you heard .. Grow your mind to put distance between you and pain ..

Never be scared to tell your story as it never occurred to your accord ..
