Confession

Someone said it better, is that it?

I feel so small

Look at me, smile. I'm fine.

Always, it will all be ok.

All over again and I'm just as lost and confused as before

Time and time

Again

I once told myself something no one else knows

I no one knows, then I don't know about it either.

I wish I was famous

Everyone should know me

I'm a nice guy

I'm funny

I'm someone interesting

I have to be.

No one lives forever

Or let's others feel pain

Or gives false hope

Or lies without trying

I do.

You know, why would you grow up?

Get a job?

Settle down?

Settle.

I told you this wasn't working

I'm great at spotting flaws

Little cracks, they're cataclysmic faults to me

God never gave me a lifeline

So I made sure I was better

I murdered

I cheated

I steal

I aim them all at my own sense

Turned around, guns are only danger to the one they're pointed at

Not the many

Not the few

Just you

We could all be safe to everyone else if we killed ourselves

You looked in the mirror

What do you do when everyone else looks back

Could you even find yourself

Waldo

My brain broke once

Broke again

I don't know how often you can keep replacing something broken before others catch on

Someone could get hurt

When I was a child

I can't remember.
