The Sand Castle Code (Cause and Effect)

The Sand Castle Code (Cause and Effect)

A Poem by Gem Marie

All in the same way make you believe anything they say
Fake, count on it like an earthquake, no such thing as a clean break
How long will it take for you to realize you've made a big mistake
You treated like I've defeated some part if not all of me
But see you'll be left asking how its gonna be
When I'm not around
To dam up your tears
Uncontrollably they've been flooding up this town
Since you've been young, number than numb
Birds
Of a feather, with the
Words
I love you too 
Whether they roll off my tongue depends on how we are doing
Swimming through the ruins
Cause I cant keep myself afloat above all the things we used to want to be or thought we had gauranteed
I dont want to tread through what was because
I'm anything but fireproof and these burning flames have swallowed up this roof
Whole is what I used to feel before you ravaged through like some sort of savage
Stealing pieces of me like a thief which is popular to contrary belief
So what if I end up hurting me
To deal to try and cover up what I had made up to conceal but then you stepped in
Something so golden and unraveled me like a banana peel
Knowing truths I didnt want to reveal tried convincing myself they werent real
And then you dropped me, left me here built up with tears
There is no way I could tell you how much it hurt
Switched up to high gear
You chose to go out and drink instead
After critting me on how bad my head
Is conditioned
You got me wishing I was the one who chose to go out and drink
Instead I was the one catching myself waiting in for an invisible friend
See I would never pull the trigger yet you know nothing bigger
I wasnt born that kind no matter how hard the grind
I keep mine defined
I hope when your trying to sleep I run through your mind
Because these things I've been running on
I've been running out of
My heart black, belted down from karate
I can't feel any part of my body
You got me in pounds
This is my sound I'm drilling into the ground
I just want to feel full and if thats something I cant possibly be
With you then step aside
First name Jekyll last name Hyde
And I never asked for any of it
But it's something your willing to commit
And I'll give in to your pain because its nothing compared to the vein
That taught me about a life that would live vainless, i just want to feel the success
I'm not scared, so unprepared
I confess
I dont want to be unhappy
But there is so much pain
In front of me
