Where's Waldo

I don't cry that much anymore.
The water runs too deep.
It got lost in my body.
But oh, there are sometimes,
Sometimes when the tears see day
And my mind goes dark.
Sometimes when I look up at the sky,
I cry.
For its the Sky that must watch us everyday.
And every night.
They wonder why it won't stop raining.

Set the Scene; Fix It All.

You're walking around in Newark.
I'm here.
I'm young,
insecure,
insignificant to the rest of the world.
I can't even drive yet.
Because I'm too young.
I can't move towards you
even though you're all around me.
In everything I do.
What now?
Please just look a little harder.
I'm here.
I've always been here.
The summer is setting itself again.
But I'm not the same.
Keep looking.
I'm dying here waiting.

I Apologize for the Sin, Love.

Little faces
up against a window.
But the window is so cold
and the fire is so warm.
Please go get warm.
The window's glass will melt you in.
But it's safe here by the fire.
You're too young to see the war.
The one that you were born into.
The one that makes you chilly.
So go to sleep tonight.
For tomorrow, when you're naive,
You will open the window,
let the wind take your innocence,
and let the cold sink into your skin.
Just don't forget to wake me
before you've left tomorrow, love.

Divorce.

I'm losing myself from eight to three. Getting worse at letting out. Getting worse at getting out. Look and see, it's all right there, clenched in my hand. I'm trying too hard now. So all that comes out are sentence fragments that hardly even make sense in my mind. Sorry about that.

I took all the hurt and the tears and put them somewhere deep under my skin. But every so often I get hit and my skin is pierced and the hurt comes running out of me. I don't want to cry. But a million tears still swim in my body. They're waiting for the outside to strike a nerve so they can strike my eyes. One day I'll let them out. But the timing of it so far hasn't been great. But one day when I'm alone in a room, I'll cry because the outside cut my skin. The outside struck a nerve.
The outside got divorced.
