You don’t even know
the power
you don’t realise
the flower
that grows inside
illusioned with pride
guarded by mind
is your might
is your right
to fight
versus premise of life
to know the truth
to be full, not half.
Whilst keeping it a prisoner
in a dark corner of your heart
you can not fathom
you can not know
you can not see
you can not be
who you are.

I find myself alone with bloodshot eyes and tearstained cheeks
finally releasing the emotions I’ve kept suppressed for week
I lay here in this dark and humid room
wishing for one thing: to be next to you

Bloodshot Eyes and Tearstained Cheeks
by Amber Lee
I find myself alone with bloodshot eyes and tearstained cheeks
finally releasing the emotions I’ve kept suppressed for week
I lay here in this dark and humid room
wishing for one thing: to be next to you
I promised I wouldn’t succumb to these dangerous thoughts
but since you’re not around, they’re all that I’ve got
the voices of nostalgia are trying to convince me that things were better in the past
I’m starting to believe them, I want to go back
I know better than to think this, it drives people mad
for nostalgia just tries to make people long for the things they had
I need to domesticate my mind, before it imprisons me
so I find myself alone with bloodshot eyes and tearstained cheeks
