”a friend in me”
Demons Jun 2018
You took me in at the start .
You gained my trust, you never fell apart.
Little did I know, you weren’t what you said.
For I looked in your eyes and never saw the dread.
We laughed and we cried,
You faked smiles and you lied.

I never saw what you painted on my back.
The big red target, the center covered in black.
When you let down your arm, it hurt like hell.
The knife, the blade, piercing deep.
I never wanted to trust again, all because you were the one friend I wanted to keep.
This is just a thing... I’ve currently gone through a betrayal, so it helps to write.

“cracks”
Demons Dec 2018
my heart is broken,
aching, hurting, why did you do this?
What did I do...?
The pain, it hurts so much...
And the glass has broken,
The cracks have formed.

“Alone”
Demons Jun 2018
i sit here in silence
not a single word is spoken
all my emotions are broken
and i can’t help but feel
like i’m by myself
not a person in sight
alone.
This is just a thing...

“The Nervous Kid”
Demons Jun 2018
My breath made visible clouds into the winter night as I spoke to you through the phone.
I spoke with honesty,
          “I’m Just a Nervous Kid.”
In which you replied.
          “We All Are.”
And with that, I knew... I knew I could trust you.

“Heartbreaking sound”
Demons Sep 2018
The most heartbreaking sound is someone’s voice cracking before they break down in tears.
Do you agree?

home.
Demons Oct 2020
though your tears sink through my phone,

oh I wish you were with me,

where you felt at home.

your pain lifted,

your hurt shifted.

i would carry some weight,

for i don’t wish to see you in this state.

i have never seen you cry,

the emotions continuing to multiply,

let me take some weight, let me lift it to the sky.

for you are a simple boy,

trapped in a complex world,

my only wish is to see you restored.

the autumn leaves fall,

the winter wind stings,

much like your pain and sorrow.

i wish that you could take a piece of my soul, only for awhile, just to borrow.

you are a thousand stars up in the sky,

your emotions have you tied.

and much like the tears that soak through my phone,

i open my arms, welcoming you home.
oh, how i wish for you to be okay.

“Name Reveal”
Demons Nov 2018
Hello, Friends.
I have now decided to let go,
Hiding and keeping my name in secrecy to most.

What’s up,
My name is finnick matthew and my last name will remain unknown. :)

It
Honestly
Is just this blur
That you can’t control
And trying your best isn’t
really going to help you in the
Long run, but if I could just
Show you that I really,
Really care for you
I’d stop these
Tears.

the way he reassures me
Demons Apr 2021
his voice has always had this reassurance to it.

not the kind of reassurance you'd get from a friend, parent or sibling.

it's the reassurance that you hang on to.

the kind you'd think about five years from now.

the kind that keeps you up at night from the butterflies his words created.

it's reassuring.

and it's all i need, all that anyone really needs.

life would be simpler if we could all understand that.

a year and five months gone
Demons May 2021
sometimes i wonder.

did it hurt when you left?
did it hurt when you said all of those things?
did you really mean it?

sometimes i wonder...

the late nights that i have pushed through trying to understand,
how was it so easy for you?
you moved on without a problem, a year and five months gone...

why is it i still miss you when you don't even seem to notice me.
i'm invisible, a ghost, another blurred face in your peripheral vision.

but like you once said,
the seasons will continue to change, the sun will still set, the world will still turn...

how was it so easy for you when anytime i saw you, my stomach would churn?
how was it so non-chalant when i couldn't even stop myself from crying when you walked by?

a year and five months, gone.

sometimes i still listen to our song.
a forgotten memory in the back of your memory, i'm sure...

time has passed and now we're just a blur.

i didn't mean to.
Demons May 2021
see, i thought it was no strings attached.

i first noticed by your protective words and intoxicating eyes.

i tried to not let it show,

i tried to not let you know,

but like any fool...

i fell for you and i didn't mean to.

afraid
Demons Oct 2020
don’t be afraid to fall in love

especially when the One your with is fading away

but the one you’ve known only for a day

is there for you when you needed Them most

because it doesn’t take love to know someone inside and out

it takes two souls that were bonded at the start

love ignites at the sight of life

The Paralysis of Love
Demons Jun 2018
My heart beats against my chest,
The adrenaline rush getting to my head.
I’m scared and stuck in public,
Lying awake to the paralysis as it’s subject.
I look around and my vision is obscured,
My mind full of aches, my words matured.
I try and try, but it all goes wrong.
My head, my words and even this song.
I wanna see you, but I don’t want it to go away,
I don’t wanna disappoint nor do I wanna Say...
I wanna go home, but this feeling forces me to stay.
The problem is, If I let it all go...
I’ll forget this ever happened, I’ll bow to my audience and I’ll call it a show.

Every time I speak, I see myself in a mirror!
Every time I look, I see my life disappear!

You heartless *******, you’re just hallucinations!
Go burn in the hell, you call home!
You’re nothing but a miscreation!
So I bow my head, and I’ll tell you...
I’m sorry and I can’t hold on much longer,
I love you.
I don’t expect this to skyrocket.

“Plagued”
Demons Sep 2018
I got the phone call.
The one that always haunted my dreams.
I Knew you were falling apart...
at the seems.
You had just started your life,
Living free, only 18.
I broke as your sister spoke,
Telling me how you tied that rope.
Each knot in its proper place,
Took your time, wasn’t a race.
Everyone screamed that it wasn’t fair.
But you went ahead and kicked the chair.
I never knew how bad it’d get.
So for now on, I lie and call it *******.
We’re all broken here, never saved.
Teens doing drugs... having ***,
And getting played...
But most importantly,
We’re all getting plagued.
I had a friend commit suicide recently and I thought i’d Write this in honor of them...
I’ve started high school this year and haven’t been super active. I’ve tried to keep up with homework, projects, etc.
So I apologize if I’m not posting a lot.

freedom.
Demons Oct 2020
it was raining.

the world was mine to take, so I stepped outside and danced around.

I took off my coat and began to let myself soak up the water from the sky,

Let this illusion disintegrate, for no one could ruin this, not even with goodbye.

My tears blended with the water droplets as they hit my face,

The world was truly within my fates.
for someone who has changed my life in such a short amount of time.

cigarette smoke

you were just like cigarette smoke.

the smell of it stuck to everything it touched, yet vanished so quickly.

one.
Demons Oct 2020
one word, but a hundred emotions.

one picture, but a thousand messages.

one life, but a million destinies.
