Dear self,
This has been a long time coming. I see the way that you put on a face every morning as you drag yourself out of bed.
she cries herself to sleep every night, holding on with all her might. She worries about what the future will bring, Will she lose everything? She thinks that she's all alone, And that nowhere feels like home.
On an island
somewhere far away
With just myself
I fend for my sanity
All I need is hope
something to strengthen my bones
A way to persevere
with just a state of mind
Hope is essential
I felt his tiny hands tug lightly to the hem of my skirt
“What do you want?”
“Solitude”
“I’m busy”
His dainty fingers curled around my own
“What do you want?”
“Repose”
“I have no time”
I want to be loved
only to be disclaimed
by the ones that were supposed to love you the most
it's not exactly the best reason to boast
you aren't the one who has the most to boast about
I suffer from a chemical embalance
Every day is a struggle
To live, To fight
Somedays I can open my eyes
It's no longer dark
I can see the light shining on me
I can see I'm not truly alone
Alone in life
followed by strife
surrounded by many
known by none
they think they know me
but know not at all.
I reach for the stars
as I start to fall.
I fall on my own
