Sometimes
i love how it feels
when pieces fit together
meticulously in my mind
bordering an infinite vision
bound by this drive
sometimes so hopeful
but then sometimes not
if i crack or split
which i often do
i collect the tears
that puddle in my hands
but sometimes
there are too many
so they escape
between each finger
as if these tiny leaks
were a sign or a message
for me to just let go
sometimes no tears fall at all
even when my heart aches
and suffers through unbearable waves
there will always be faults
that pour from inside
sometimes i know they sting
so i rage to veil my fear
and sometimes that blinds the path
i know i must choose
sometimes though
to keep from going mad
in a mad world
i wish it was all more than just
sometimes.
