Constant Disappointment

Kiss me goodbye
when guns are blazing I have arrived
hallmark material was never my words
painted my world black
it just doesn't mean I am disturbed
different takes on the same glass
it was half empty always in my eyes
spent half this life trying to figure out
why I never lived up to your potential
I wanted to and that this death wasn't your fault
it's on me like every other time


I just wish at times
you just would have held me
for once told me I wasn't worthless
all the awards I ever won
is covered and dust
despite what I achieved I always felt alone
21 is young but I feel so old
I stabbed at your armor
but never broke through
run away constantly
just never did set off the alarm
you didn't care and now neither do I
closing my eyes for the final time
supreme rings of silence as it's goodbye......
