Melting Under Pressure
Not you, too
Melting under pressure,
Like they always seem to do
Seeing myself
Reflected back into me
Vividly
So, if it's true, me for you Could you promise to sustain?
Dissolve the past
Release the shame
Yet surrendering all the same
Holding onto each memory
Kiss to kiss
Because what once felt so lovely
Feels like it no longer is
Not you, too
Gone so soon?
Melting under pressure,
Like they always seem to do
So I went practicing
Have you not noticed me?
Have you not felt me too?
Laying at night
Tossing to ignore emotions That cannot be addressed
If I were to ever truly reveal
The hidden memories Of whom I am undressed
Not yet prepared for you to see
My truest self
And the pain that festers inside of me
All that's left
And whom I've been told to be
So I slowly go insane
As memories of smiles arise
Yet fighting against tears
That cannot seem to subside
When torture lurks
Within a single thought
However unkind
Left with nothing but thoughts to think
Hence showing up to you With such a weary mind
Leading and leaving with love
Praying all the best
As my faith is put to test
