Oceans and Miles

Over the last few days I've been feeling lower and lower. I've been in a really good place for the last 3 or so weeks and it's a real bummer. Every time I think I'm on top of it all again I seem to come crashing down. This is a really dark poem, but it's seriously how it feels to be inside of me right now. I don't see it at all meladramatic. Try to enjoy it and take it for what it is...

“Oceans and Miles”

My chest sinks right through me
It feels so tight and I can’t take anymore
So cold, and so heavy are the hearts of many
Why must we do this to ourselves?

We long for more, wish for so much
So much we can only look at, never touch
The sky’s the limit, with our hopes on the floor
It left with you when you found something more

Everyday’s a day for living
Every night’s left for regrets
So much time to think, and over analyse
All the mistakes and what hurts inside

So much is left
So much could be said
I feel so lonely, I feel so scared
I hate feeling that this feeling may never end

Coming so far to step back so much
Oceans and miles couldn’t measure the distance
Not planes or trains are what keep us apart
It has everything to do with this dank, cold heart
