All the things I don't

Life is mostly about learning who you aren't.

All the things I don't

I find it easier to go with the flow, let the others agree

My go-to solution left me with guilt as I learn to care about me

I don't know a lot about things I truly want

Although, I know exactly all the things I don't

I don't want emotions or these tender hearted feelings

I don't want to care for shady people or the mess they're dealing

I don't want to cry or hurt, take my heart off my sleeve

I don't want to see a face swearing promises to me that i should never believe

Take away this empathy and any toxic before it gets to me, I don't want this foolish optimism

I don't ever want to look for what I do not clearly see

The villain of my pain accepting all the blame now to find me

I don't want a big heart to break or an easy going spirit

I found my voice and I matter too it's time i shouldn't fear it

Honey Dunn

Enjoy the chaos of my mind spatter. A realm of darkness twinkling with shine. A broken soul so full of love in this cruel world.
