Still don't know what to call it.......

A crack of light slips through my fingers

I wake up cold

Where am I now

What’s this life for

Faint strokes of white color the air

It’s getting a little harder to breathe

When did it happen

Why was it you

I reached out but it was impossible

I tried to call out but it was futile

The way things are, I’d be lying to myself

If there had ever been a chance

It got lost in the inflexibility

That was the foundation of my pride

A voice that never demanded attention

A psyche that earned respect

Such a subtle state of being

Never tainted by arrogance

My hand can’t even fathom your mind

It entangles me even further

I can’t get away

I don’t want to get away

I want to get away

I reached out but it was impossible

I tried to call out but it was futile

The way things are, I’d be lying to myself

If there had ever been a chance

It got lost in the inflexibility

That was the foundation of my pride

Pretty honey eyes, I see the one in your gaze

The lovely shades of red that color your cheeks

How it burns and stings inside

How this feeling doesn’t subside

Too naive to understand

And yet wise enough to care

I want to scream those words to you

I want you to be mine

I reached out but it was impossible

I tried to call out but it was futile

The way things are, I’d be lying to myself

If there had ever been a chance

It got lost in the inflexibility

That was the foundation of my pride

The green monster within remains chained

Forever restless and insane

Tearing my insides with it claws

Ravaging my words with its jaws

A crack of light slips through my fingers

I wake up cold

Where am I now

What’s this life for

I reached out but it was impossible

I tried to call out but it was futile

The way things are, I’d be lying to myself

If there had ever been a chance

It got lost in the inflexibility

That was the foundation of my pride
