Yes's and No's

There's all these yes's and no's
I answer, but who else knows?
I somehow answer them wrong
To the beat of a song-less song

When I go to tell someone yes
It is usually my greatest guess
Falling right into some turmoil
The touching of a snail as I coil

If I even dare to tell someone no
It would still be a guilt into a go
They tell me how wrong I can be
When I say no; if they could see

Yes is an okay word to express
When you're not feeling distress
And if you are, you should say no
It is your birthright to tell them so

Nineteen

3/21/16

I held onto nineteen
For as long as I could
Probably a lot longer
Than what I should

But nineteen had other plans
She decided to let me go
And while I plead and begged
She still gave me an answer of no

"It's time to move on and live!"
"Show them what you have to give! "
But this was something I couldn't.

A fortress of solitude
Not knowing when
And never looking back
To a world of ten

And when you stop looking
When you stop and stand still
You will feel that change
You will feel that chill!
