amygdala

my greatest fear?
is being alone
with no contact with family
or friends
or even strangers
while stranded in a place
where i have to survive on my own.

month of September
warmth prevailing
yet i'm bluer than ever
sun gone down
no more gold forever
unless i remember
unless i remember

it's been a minute since
i talked to my mom
invisible mask on my brother
hope nothing is wrong
sometimes i wonder
where my soulmate is at
are they alive? are they ok?
trouble scratching my back
sometimes i wonder how i'll die
riddled with bullets at the store
or taking a walk?
will i survive?
survival of the fittest
we're all just animals on this earth
don't want any trouble
just wanna feel safe ya heard?

worrying too much
about the people i love
want to tell my friends i love you
instead of saying what's up
another favor from you?
i've had enough
had enough
i still wanna be friends though

headlines on every week
all we can do is watch with shiny eyes
as things we've already seen
time and time again
these eyes are wet for a reason
cause it can be you next or me
feeble feet on the floor
cause i'm still standing
hard to believe
hearts still beating
i'm still breathing
some people to early, too young
yet they leave

(woah)

i'm scared of earthquakes
crushed bodies under pavement
this world so big i dig a hole
hide my head
i hope it's not for long

i need a knight
if i walk at night
i'm just so paranoid
there's a gun on the counter
can i trust you with it?
thoughts of running away
freezing toes on the streets
want to live here for free
bonnets over my eyes when i sleep

stress got me sleepwalking
she's playing sudoku on the green
a single picture as my dream
i hate alarms
i crack my feet
look both ways
when you cross that street.

oh hi!
wait a minute.
who are you-
