on a wall of sorrow
mumble when I speak
does not matter no listens or cares
focus on a feeling
so many things I have been concealing
it is so hard to breathe
when fear is in the air

during the intervention
my visions were never mentioned
I am off balanced and I know it
all poets live in pain
thinking about
the apocalypse
come home smelling like whiskey
when I am suppose to be at AA

All my friends lie
never saying what they are thinking
so much agony and misery
it is hard to ignore and endure
they will say that they never knew
I was so unsatisfied
when they find me in a deep sleep
on my bedroom floor

I am a restless shadow
on a wall of sorrow
mumble when I speak
does not matter no listens or cares
focus on a feeling
so many things I have been concealing
it is so hard to breathe
when fear is in the air

during the intervention
my visions were never mentioned
I am off balanced and I know it
all poets live in pain
thinking about
the apocalypse
come home smelling like whiskey
when I am suppose to be at AA

All my friends lie
never saying what they are thinking
so much agony and misery
it is hard to ignore and endure
they will say that they never knew
I was so unsatisfied
when they find me in a deep sleep
on my bedroom floor
