This is about someone trying hard to come to terms with themselves within themselves.


Grown Up Baby

Baby you create
a darkness for yourself
then you let it
consume you
you run after the wilderness
but its already within
your mind
you chase away
all the friends of your heart
and replace them
with all the ugliness
that you can find
you put up
strong walls
trying to keep away
affection that might help you
in your quest for true love
immediately you forsake
your own best interest
for the interest
of those less worthy
its a habit you've had
since you've been
old enough to carry
the weight of a grudge
