Truthful Confession. One of my favorites to this day.

Truthful Confession

11/27/2019

 the numbing thats in my skull

is something that will appall

something that will make me fall

at at this point in time

i think im down to end it all


I want to lie

i want to hide

behind this mask

whos rule i abide to

whose law im confined to 

whose pool i get drowned to


blood on my shirt

obviously im hurt

but who cares now

this is my world

this is my word

this is my hurt

this is what i learned

this is all the poetry i lean on

something that ive been on

wishing that i were different

wishing that i could slit wristed


all these people telling lies

telling me i can not die

but who are they to change my life

this is my land and my time


i wont let you bless my ride

cause ill shoot those blessings to the ground


im trying and im trying

to stop myself from lying

to stop myself from crying


but by god can i not help it

Ive been lying

ive been trying to stop lying


Those way past poems from todays eternity

from those bouncing on the lines 

unable to keep myself sturdy


I even said in those lines and in the stanzas

i cry and cry but thats not right

I lied

I cried for attention

not the tear shed


I wanted the compliments and the sympathy

I wanted the attention and all everyone gave me


cause thats what made me feel alive

though my lies sting worse than a bee hive


I know my hearts the same as yours

i know my blood spills no more than yours

I know our brains are mere the same

But lying is the only thing that tends to keep me sane

god only knows how much i want to be better

God only knows how much i want to write a letter

but even to the tiny details

Saying the brain that wants do die

that again is another lie


now gosh i know what your thinking

how can i trust this jester

how is he any better

but as Tyler Joseph says oh so many times

don't forget about me

don't doubt me

im sorry for doubting you

im sorry for worrying you

im sorry for lying to you

im sorry for fake crying to you

im sorry for bleeding to you

im sorry for seething over you

im sorry for the empathy that may have spilled over you

and gosh we all save the best for last huh

im sorry for implementing you


who knows the stress that may cause

who knows how many people grew claws

to tear open their own heart

just to save mine

im not that bad i promise

i just dont have control over my own mind


Ive said it before

ive read it before

i sway between those lines

and if i wasn't vocal now

i don't know how

but im all over the minus sign

now don't disregard the plus sign

it gets its fair share of re-design

Im on the plus sign more than i say i am

im mostly happy 

i wont lie about that


but its when i get sad

where i write these paragraphs


so this is how you may know me

but don't let this perfectly show me

cause im more than a mirror 

of a blackened heart

and a blackened terror


there's only a few loose screws

that need some tightening

cause once im repaired

the enemy finds me frightening


and he who has strength in simple mind

is one who controls their time


im im here for the ride thats for sure


and please, stay with me
