Poem babies that were too small to make seperately
There's a firestorm of doubt held within my heart
And yet those thin walls still beat in rythm,
As if there was never a doubt that it would continue to strum
Compliments are as golden as they are rotten in my mind
Each one sweeter then the next,
Each one piling up in an endless void,
In one ear and out the next
But they sure do sound pretty
I feel as though I am a burglar
Stealing the life of those around me
I like what they like
I do what they do
I complain to them
I talk to them
I hang on to them
Each second I take up is another one wasted
And yet,
I must be good at my job
For no one even realizes it
