sweet escape

i changed my long gown
take my jewelries off
wash my face smudged with a lot of dirt
pull my down

wear my oversized t-shirt
slip my shorts and ready to take the toll

people looked at me differently
people see me perfectly
people expects too much from me

but im glad they do
im glad that they are showing me

but sometimes i wished that they didn't
sometimes i wished that i hadn't had seen it

i end up doing things that they tell me explicitly
i end up doing good in every thing that they expect me to do
i end up beating up the coward in me

and sometimes i just wanted to run
run and run and run

i can't breathe
i can't take it all in

i just can't

tonight i'll be sleeping in my crowded room
and tomorrow i'll be wearing those flashy things
this flashy smile

i just hope i won't run too much
i might not be able to come back

pitch black

it's 12 o'clock in the morning
lights still on
hand scratching my head
its starting to hurt
my nails
so sharp

my head
although it hurts
even if it pains me
i just need to continue
i might slice my head
it might bleed
i know
but


i don't want to stop
not yet

i need to satisfy
the urge
the want
the need
but if somebody stop me
pull my hand
and start helping me ease the pain
then i might stop
stop
stop it
start all over again
patch things up
heal the slice
and maybe i might cut my nail short again
but if not
i might still be scratching it
till the day that it comes
