The Sun After Rain

The sun after rain
Kisses my face
I remember to laugh
I remember to smile again
Here I am
Here I am
Now I am alive

Do you remember the time I was sad
And I cried out for you
Do you remember the time I was sad
You said that you never knew
Do you remember the time I was sad
And you just looked right through
I laid in my bed
Checking check my phone
I laid in my bed
Pretending not to feel alone

Hoping for peace within my heart
Hoping for peace when weāre apart
Trying to swim against the waves
Breathing in water Iām not unsafe

Living life with the dirty
But I canāt say a thing
Iām afraid of your anger
So I hold mine in
In this time for reflection
I donāt see mirrors
I just feel the suction towards
Hiding and fear
Tip toeing and quiet
And still I am seen
Squished into a madness
Skipping bodily needs
In this time for reflection
I donāt see mirrors
I just feel the suction towards
Hiding and fear

A piece of the resistance
Floats down the stream
A purple flower whispers
All that we could have been
I heard we had it coming
Riding down the line
Will we be ready
To give back the time?
I smell the resentment
Boiling fear
When you hardly can breathe
You donāt help those whoāre near
I wish we could find peace
Smile in harmony
That requires changing
Who tells our stories
That requires changing
Who tell our stories

Thought Water
03:55
|
|||
Thereās a weed planted in my brain
Roots dig deep thirsty for my thought water
It says quick quick quick
It says check check check check
It says who is a success?
Six gulls soar from the misty gray
Scanning for the tiniest prey
Their prey is āIām not thereā
Their prey is āI donāt have itā
Their prey is āIām not whole
Until Iāve got itā
The sea says āSo what?
Who knows what anyone has?
You know more than anyone
What you really haveā

Don't Fucking Talk to Me

Donāt fucking talk to me
Please
I need alone time
I need some quiet please
Some space to think
