Being lonely and solitary in this cold darkness
On a tuesday you can join me if you feel the same
I don’t know when the good times will come
And it’s probably because the good times never last
And it’s probably because i haven’t really been trying
Maybe i’m not okay
But it’s easier to ignore reality and prolong these distractions
We can make up a world of our own creation
Where there is no such thing as wasting time
or making mistakes or losing hope
And maybe you can be real
And you can take my hand and make it all better
Teach me how to be better
And how to care and grow and learn
Could you please sit beside me
And wait for me to accept the truth
And let go of you to recognise
that we don’t have to choose
Between sitting inside or out
Being unapologetic and standing up
Having messy writing and broken texts
That goes off topic and is filled with nonsense
That probably won’t get read by anyone
And might get forgotten after it’s done
It’s still better than ignoring
And the excuses of illuminated screens
And scratching at wrists
