i fall sometimes
July 31, 2018
i fall sometimes.
and i can't live in silence
of admitting that.
of myself,
of the monsters,
of you.
so,
let me tell you.
i can't count
the cold and endless nights
that i've cried myself to sleep
because of vicious words
fallen from my bloods lips.
i can't count
the number of times
that my friends have begged
for me to truly smile
and they see past the fake ones
constantly planted on my lips.
i've done some things bad,
haven't we all?
the thing that makes me fall
is that i can forgive myself
but you haven't tried at all.
-blood may be thicker but at least water flows
