"The Hang of Life"

By H H
Info


When juice pouches turned to coffees

Dolls and cars replaced by smart-phones

Embellished fields planted with skyscrapers

I age more than the number of years

That defines innocence

In a state of denial and growing each day

Living with bombs inside my heart


When a glass fell from my hands

They took it as a chance

To throw the broken pieces at me

I let it scar my legs, my arms, my face

Just never my brain


Many wishes you well

More are wishing you hell

They prove me wrong

I kept proving them right

They celebrate my death

Be prepared to welcome my revival


One’s happiness is a suffocation to others

Disassociating yourself is inessential

For by and by, they’d start to drift away

Those who know less, speak the most

No explosives are needed

For their heads inflate

It’d start a firework show


People want everything in verity

Drop them with bombs of reality

They’d repudiate what they can’t handle

And throw all their knives at you


In a room full of hypocrites

I find myself repelling

I watch as they eat their words

Such wonderful entertainment.

Love to Lost in Lust

Losing someone who's not yours to lose. Longing for someone that's not yours to long for.

Time heals everything is a lie, 'cause it gets more painful by and by.
