DEPRESSURIZED

Some days I wake up, scared the day may be my last
I haven’t done much good deeds judging from my past

I gave my life to Christ but took it back the next day
Know sinning is wrong but still do bad things my friends say

I go to sleep without praying like I had a fight with God
But wake up screaming “JESUS” when I dream of losing blood

People ask how I’m doing and I lie “I’m fine”
But can’t even enjoy life knowing I’m running out of time

There’s light at the end of the tunnel and that’s hope
But some thoughts make me want to end life with a rope

I attempted to do the wrong, I attempted to let life go
Now I wear long sleeves afraid my attempts will show

Everything hurts, failed promises, heartbreaks and backbiting
To a point, the ones I call friends are also demons I’m fighting

Sucked up in a black hole, trying to escape depression
But you can’t run away from what will always be your reflection

Saturday nights, I feel the pressure, I get depressed
Sunday morning, I’m in church giving Him the praise

I can’t really question God because I know He’s the answer
I’m still numbed to the pain that I can’t feel how my hands are

Nights come again and I get in bed longing for breakthroughs
Then I go to sleep only to wake up scared, the cycle continues.

Yours Hopefully

 Last night I laid in bed with my face gazing at the ceiling. Tears rolled to my ears as only I knew what and how I was feeling But sometimes I wonder what my pillow thinks every night Knowing it supports my head every time yet I still don't end up alright But how can I explain to an inanimate object what letting out is That I convert my pain to liquid and then send them as tears Weeks ago I got on a call with my cousin and he asked for some cash He has always been helpful to me so I felt bad telling him I didn't have Funny enough I had thought of calling him for some financial assistance But he called first and I disappointed him that instant "It's okay brother, soon we'll look back at moments like this and laugh", he said My eye balls got wet to his encouraging words, hopeful yet I cried instead  Today I got a mail from a job I was interviewed months ago to resume in two days Here I lay in bed soaking my pillow again, but I'm sure it understands these ar...

A Thousand Ways To Lie

Let's face it, we're all liars, though some of us are more creative. So I'll tell you few things I've said before and hope I don't regret this. "Ohh my gosh, I can't hear you, my network is really bad" I just couldn't tell you I'm bored by you but I wish I had. I tell you "I'm almost there" when I'm reluctant to get out of bed. Probably busy, going through thoughts filling up my head. I say "It's so great to see you" while putting on a fake smile. If I tell you what I meant, your happiness won't last for a while. "Sorry I didn't see your call, I'm really busy here in Tokyo" By now you should know I'm lying because I'm a real life Pinocchio. I use "I've got plans on that day" to get out of chances to meet new faces. Just because I feel uncomfortable in a crowd so I avoid new places. When the words I let out are hurting and too true, I say "I'm ...
