A-l 1

Alone, alone,
man on a mission,
ending transmission,
alone, alone.
 
Alone, alone,
somber character,
shooting the messenger,
alone, alone.
 
Alone, alone,
sarcastic response,
miserable nonce,
alone, alone.
 
Alone, alone,
inevitably the best,
never the worst,
alone, alone.

That Wasn't Me, I Never Want To Go Back To That

She cuts to break skin,
releasing the rush
of the anger held in,
blood begins to gush.
Fearing her past,
unknown anger builds up,
surroundings move too fast,
stress overflows her cup.
Browns eyes fear what she isn't,
afraid of tomorrow and the next,
hoping to release hostility imprisoned,
she doesn't want to lose self-respect.

Trapped in four walls
Hanging lights all around
Awaits her father's call
But only a bickering sound

Chump

He believes in magic,
something that's not real.
An egocentric plastic man,
a life led to be surreal.

He drowns himself in-
his narcissistic heart,
a cold dark abyss,
where loneliness rips him apart.

An excellent array of apathy,
absentee from all social connection,
a phantom based identity,
he's the ideal imperfection.

Ignorant to universal morals,
he may just be dumb,
though he lives his own life,
all he is, is a chump.
