The voice

Inside my head

Is no longer

Mine

Can you find

                           The strength within

                                                                 You

                                Or are you too scared

                                              to even look?

Do you remember

When we were young

And the future was still a sweet sensation

Within our minds

When did it all

Become so bitter?

When did I go from being a beautiful memory

To just another painful entry

In your diary?

The soft morning light veers through the cracks in the blinds

Reminding you that today is a new day;

And that the next chapter in your life is simply waiting for you to write it

Try not to dwell in unchangeable nightmares of yesterday;

Focus only on the sweet dreams of today
