He wasn't blind , knew you needed love but the thought of leaving his great life behind bought him a sense of fright so he took the first flight not knowing that the knight's amour had been broken but mended by unnamed scars .

BLIND EYED
growing up i wanted to be thicker I wished my skin could betray my heart and hide my bones in the rise of my cores that curve slightly below my waistline and beyond but no years were swallowed in a valley and around the alley my body felt hollow . Now I chase after that smoothie trying to chase away slight calories. Frowning at the sight of whipped cream so my belly will not feel undermined or disrespected . my heart grew wider , opening up to voices that told me i was heavy and guided me to join the course and lose the cause and of cause i signed up willingly allowing my mind to rot . But not in exhaust I decreased to taller , lighter But I could not reach the figure I could only seethe in magazines Pageants , I would filter . But my glitter Was slightly in need I needed to let my soul feed . But I felt inferior Not because of my weight But because of the marks now on my waist The signs Permanent, can't be erased . My beauty I would curse But my body I did waste Now I taste the bitter clance Of regret as it drips from my hand .

Insecure
I wanted to be heard . I wanted to be seen . You said you were scared To let me go . So I stayed , I whispered , But I wished I could shout . My voice was loud But only heard by whispers and shadows in the dark Adults were blinded by their own light . "I want to be a star " But like a deaf dog in the dark . My pleas fell to the floor And I chose to let go . I would wonder what you were like ten years ago . Young , fragile , ambitious like me Oh I see . Your dream and hopes Were squashed and crushed down In a blink of an eye Like an insignificant vow That breaks your soul So to prevent the loss you shut it up Before you hear the voice . I wish you could listen to my choices Here me when I try . Read in between the lines . I said I want to be a star . But if you don't seem to help me chase my dream I will be chasing your silhouettes in the dark . I feel heard when adults are not around As by this time I would have been far .
