"I am Happy to The Point of Fear" -Ralph Waldo Emmerson


I'm tired of waiting,
I'm sick of hurting and bleeding this way,
I'm done with blaming myself,
For the things that are gone 'cause YOU took them away

I am finished with all of this
that Ive tried to live with for far far too long
I have been weakened,
I am done being outwardly, maskedly strong.

I need it to go away,
I cant watch the bloody bath anymore,
I am through with this charade,
This world has become such a painful, disdainful bore.

I stare at the mess
that I thought I had made
But i see that I never was
Part of this raid,

I was always an innocent
ignorant bystander,
Waiting and hoping
To change how they all slander,

But all I can see
is the tears in my eyes,
All I can hear
are the prayers i have cried

All i can feel
Is the hurt you have caused,
So come to me, help me,
Speak to me... my fraud.
