Outcaster

Swimming through the wreckage of a
Sunken ship of adolescence.
Warmth swirling beyond the grasping
Hands of a maturing child
Who can't grow up,
Who can't accept love
Guided by shifting wants
Indifference chilling naïve shoulders

Illusive is the target of serenity
Behind the haze awaits an identity
Unable to conquer the obstacles advancing
Without an angle, and without a strategy
Diagnosis; frightened of
Insides being totally wrong
Letting go, and giving up
Falling securely back to bed

Yells carry upstairs, soiling the air
As knuckles knead cheeks of a crying child

The future's a monster behind a curtain
Its tendrils lacerate the mind's surface
A thickening fear spoils a canned dinner
Goodbye to the now, hello to hereafter

Pushing onward through tragedies
Carrying the baggage of past defeats
Emotion concealed beneath a blank mien
Thoughts encircling a bleakening scene

Never believing in anything for a second
Jaded and nauseous from life's lessons
Bloated with tutored contempt
Distaste coating the throat like phlegm

Too much at stake, but nowhere to go
This disease festers within the home
Looking around everyone looks the same
Looking around everyone looks

Crazy.
They call you
Crazy they call you
Crazy insane they call you
Crazy insane they call you
Crazy insane they call you
Crazy insane they call you
Crazy insane they call you
Crazy insane they call you
Crazy insane they call you
Crazy insane they call you
Crazy insane they call you
Crazy insane they call you
Crazy insane they call you
Crazy insane they call you
Crazy insane they call you
Crazy insane they call you
Crazy insane they call you
Crazy insane they call you
Crazy insane they call you
Crazy insane they call you
