Take

Take


I’m socially awkward 

Trying to figure life out

I surrender to myself

Because I’m not enough 


I give myself up freely

I’ll be yours as long as you’ll be mine

I need validation from you 

But about me 


I’ll give until I almost break

Bending under the weight

Like a bamboo stalk

All you can do is


Take take take 竹

Take all of me 

Feel all of me 

Have all of me 

Let me wait to see


But I’m not this forward 

What is this stuff all about 

I don’t understand self 

As I’m lonely it’s rough 


And what is all this really 

I try to calm down and I’ll be fine 

I share way too much that is true 

Yet about me


I’ll give until I almost break

Bending under the weight

Like a bamboo stalk

All you can do is


Take take take 竹

Take all of me 

Feel all of me 

Have all of me 

Let me wait to see


I don’t want to be alone

Take me in

Take me however

And anyway 

Let me live

And take me 

Away

Okay?


I’ll give until I almost break

Bending under the weight

Like a bamboo stalk

All you can do is


Take take take 竹

Take all of me 

Feel all of me 

Have all of me 

Let me wait to see

Time to Come Undone

It's been a few days since we've spoken So it's been a few days since we've fought And now you're reaching out to me Wanting to come and see me I don't know if you should I have to say I really miss you Your absence leaves me feeling incomplete But the peace and calm these past few days Make recent choices worth this loneliness Every second chance was just another battle Loving you never was logical But the comfort of this reprieve Makes these changes obvious It's time to come undone If I'm supposed to be better off Then why am I resisting the change Every ignored call takes effort To seem like I just don't care I know that just isn't fair But what's fair has never been the point It doesn't matter now. You had your chance, To put the effort in to fix us I told you then but if you forgot it... I won't, can't, I refuse to do this anymore Loving you wasn't logical And neither was staying so long This p...

STRIKE FIRST

I had suspicions... I'm a lovefool, but I'm weathered too Every time I voiced my fears, I was gaslit effortlessly Before I know it, I'm foolishly devoted to a con... a player Even through my adoring eyes I see y our words are... dubious So how do I find myself caught unaware With the conflicting lines, I got the truth half the time You were here getting even for things that were only your sins of thought I've heard of a preemptive strike But what you DO ... IT'S something new I'm left bewildered and confused End the war before I'm belligerent Strike First!  Obliterate, raze my heart with everyone If I wasn't so... brutalized by it I'd be in... awe The level of planning and imagining conspiracies If I hadn't gone through it, I'd say "Impossible!" How can you let someone love... you ... then ruin them for all time Of course I play the part you had set for me Armed with just suspicions, I acted out with vengeance ...

An Incomplete Collection

I've been fighting to keep this relationship coming to a hault Fearing an impending chaos too much for my already fracturing psyche  But all I'm finding at our end is unexpected calming silence Peace I haven't known since knowing you Was our love ever real Or are my feelings just a byproduct  Of you sociopathic mimicry To function out in the light There is one way lately you can always find me Curled up in confusion, Reeling either things just happened  Or anticipating what is next I never thought I'd ever come so close to death I could taste it twice It's like the scent at the base of your neck  Absent of anything just like the part in your eyes that should sparkle If there was ever love in your heart for me Or anyone like you claim It's really amazing your potential The amazing things, beyond your wants and needs Like love or whatever you could dream But sadly, like my recent ramblings  Just an incomplete collection of painful venom unnecessarily  I sit u...
