    I'm just posting two things I've written lately. I'm not sure if they're good, I've been too stressed to bother... it's what came out, pure and uncleaned.

    Happiness is a Lie

    Going through the motions of self-control
    Pretending nothing matters, like you have no soul
    the time ticks by and the pressure cracks
    through to the bones - they sear through attacks

    What's the difference between the young and stupid?
    If it's all the same to you, I'll remain informed and depressed
    Knowning the truth is worth more than happiness, because honesty is real
    Happiness is a lie when you're inside my head

    I love easy and lose hard, but I'm no fool to believe in forever
    Forever comes too quick, like the Knight that never shows when you need him
    I cry for you almost every night, wishing you'd just see the the words I write
    You mean everything and nothing - I can't compete

    What's the difference between love and friendship?
    If it's all the same to you, I'll remain alone and distanced.
    Knowning what's real is worth more than the weeks we spend together
    Happiness is a lie when you're inside my head

    It's fine, I'm alright - just a million more lies
    Do you say it for your self to keep the dream alive?
    It hurts them more, but I'll never speak a word of truth
    because silence is the secret, the utopia where I live

    What's the difference between freedom and laughter?
    If it's all the same to you, I'll remain trapped and quiet
    Knowing what's out there is worth more because what happens next
    Happiness is a lie when you're inside my head

    All the lies and half-truths that nobody has to know
    I'm just hurting myself, but it's better than me than you
    I laugh at the truth now, the pain minus beauty

    What's the difference between inspiration and happiness?
    If it's all the same to you, I'll remain intregued by sadness
    Knowing what it feels like is worth more than the alternate numbness
    Happiness is a lie when you're inside my head

    Will everything become all better, like they do on TV
    Do they wind up in love or become best friends?
    One goes out and the other stays home
    I'm just here, looking at the world

    What's the difference between reality and fantasy?
    If it's all the same to you I'll remain unconsious.
    Knowing is a pain, worth more than the pennies inside my pocket
    Happiness is a lie when you're inside my head


    A Million Sonnets

    A million sonnets will never fare
    because no words can explain my love, true
    I am a slave of love, for you I bear
    enthralled by your wisdom, it's not what's due

    Will the books I read in depth become you
    The tragic fate ran through our lives before
    Let us be together and honesty will debut
    Like birds, we fly away and start to sore

    Don't let the sorrow dewll, that is my wish
    My love, come through before it is too late
    As one, our lives are more than just childish
    dreams or worthless moments left up to fate

    Your eyes, so deep, spoke truth of tu et moi
    I knew right then, you were my Kerenina


    Thanks for reading.
