My Thoughts.......

  Chasing
certain moments
through my mind

  Seeking
unique love
a special kind

  Uncovering
past thoughts
hurtful feelings
not intending to find

  Hiding
broken images
captured your soul
made me blind

Cubic Zirconia

I wear depression
as a crown
I take anxiety
and fold it up
I pour it out of my heart
into a soulless cup

Feet tangled in fear
limping through life
hypocrites everywhere
but pretending it's clear 

Standing out
because you look real
not pretending
while wearing
plastic hands and 
trying to feel

County Fair

Fairs will draw you in
by your skin
and suck your soul

Carnies will guess your weight
while holding your wallet
as the people cattle through
the gate doors

Smell of grease and sin
fills the cramped air
children bargaining for one more ride
as the masses circulate
round and round
through the county fair
