Between Time and Tears
Trapping perfection
Is a waste of my time
As I crouch in this damned chair,
And realize
That nothing good can come from this.
That my various insecurities
Created from the depths
Of the feeding frenzy
That has run red
Like a juggernaut
In my bleeding soul
Has become beautiful to me.
All those popular fallacies
That urge everyone
To achieve something beyond themselves
Really pisses me off.
Embrace your damaged self
For this is where
True art thrives
Between time and tears.
