Smother from Non Fiction by Burn Juniper

What a circus!
Everyone looks for
mediocre ways to thrive
Terrorized by our own masks
we wear to hide

I smother by trying to fit in a standard I've outgrown

---

The noises inside my head
Overpower every whisper of my heart
It seems that's just the way
Who I am
Sometimes I'm sitting in the dark
I'm waiting for a spark

---

Listlessness does not easily
disappear, it grows
It's getting worse, week by week
and that feels morose

I smother by trying to fit in a standard I've outgrown

---

The noises inside my head
Overpower every whisper of my heart
It seems that's just the way
Who I am
Sometimes I'm sitting in the dark
I'm waiting for a spark

---

I smother
by trying to
fit in your standards
I have outgrown
I have
I have
I have outgrown

---

The noises inside my head
Overpower every whisper of my heart
It seems that's just the way
Who I am
Sometimes I'm sitting in the dark
I'm waiting for a spark
