My heart calls
For someone who’s not there
I swear I can hear it

I want to confess it all
Every wrong I did to you
But where do I begin?

How I hated myself so much
I searched for love in others
That didn’t give it to me

When you were always there
Bursting with sunshine
I was hiding in the shadow
Of my sins

Call my name
                        Whisper it
Or shout it
Anything
         To hear
Your voice

Chasing you
     Through
The flowers
           And mud
Wishing you’d chase after me
I reached for your hand but it was never there
Until now

She has a golden outer shell
Sometimes the inner blackness bubbles to the surface
In the form of
a harsh word
Or a look of annoyance

I thought she was happy
But she’s incased herself in a vale
Of pride and glitter

The cracks begin to show
When winter comes around
