Confess

I confess 

I am blessed

I have nothing to stress 

I just lay here in style 

and dread for a while 

 

I choose to lay in my madness 

it’s no secret, I guess 

I’m blessed

I’m blessed 

So don’t put me to rest 

 

I’ll confess 

I know more than I let on 

or maybe I don’t 

I hold back 

no need for that 

When will these pains be gone? 

My madness I choose to lay in 

does it satisfy me?

Are we really a family…

like a giant tree? 

Old ghost stories 

they don’t frighten me

I just live a life 

That was molded for thee 

tales of old times 

come with a thousand rhymes 

 

Do I confess? 

To the pain that haunts me

the thoughts that torment me

What will I do when their answers 

don’t satisfy my needs? 

Shall I just hold in the bleed? 

Is this just the eerie feeling 
of Halloween? 

Or is it just my excuse to cover up

these haunting terrors I call my feelings?

 

Is this my confession? 
No, I won’t confess
