If only I could feel the same

The name leaks like mercury

as it falls from their lips,

Twisting me up in treacherous vine

my soul takes the hit,

There's a thunderstorm inside me,

A violent ocean in its wake

The waves keep getting bigger,

and the emotions hard to take

Theres a wolf deep down inside me

Howling at the moon

Giving fit to sorrow,

relief comes none too soon

There is a blackness inside me,

waiting to release

The dark clouds keep gathering

never seeming to cease

While I am left with inner turmoil

you are greeted with none the same

You are gifted with a calm indifference,

at the mention of my name
