Bliss Poem by mike susak

All these tears i shed
All my open wounds that bled
So much of my life, has gone up in a flame
And all my craziness, it was my head to blame
Wrong paths, strong laughs,
So many lyrics they were all rough drafts
So much sincerity, comes from my heart
But everyone close seems to just dart
Walk, don't run, just pick and make fun
Tired of derailment, tired of impalement
Another dream, that just ended in violent screams
Terror at night, i toss and turn and never put up much of a fight
And all the tears,
And all my fears,
Will they ever go away
Sat in stone,
Free to roam,
But im trapped,
Like a present tightly wrapped,
Im tired of being frail like this
Even if i never find my bliss,
