I want to say I’m sorry
For suffocating you with my worry

I didn’t think my concern would feel
like a burden or come off out of turn

I guess this is goodbye
For 10 years I wasted time

The memories are still there but might vanish like whispers in the air

A lonely night
A silent breeze
Cold and quiet
A heart that seems to freeze

Strolling alone
Under the bright moonlight
With perfect steps and dainty twirls
I danced with my shadow and it felt unusual

The taps and the inexistent beat
Music to my ears
Hours of dancing alone
Felt like the universe was for me alone

When the world lied to my face
All I could do was smile

When my friends turned their backs away
All I was left with was I

My family is losing spirit
And I’m losing my sanity

What am I able to do
For this world is too much for a child

My inner child

My whole world,
My bedroom.
No place I’d rather be… but,
At the same time,
Any place but here is better.

This house I love,
This house I hate,
This house of fire,
Burning with anger,
With rage.

This family I’m grateful for,
Sometimes I can dislike.
The friends I appreciate,
Sometimes I get jealous of.

A terrible human being,
That is what I am.
But then again, that is what I am,
A human being.

A sunny disposition
Forgotten sadness
Swept under the rug
Exchanged for hatred
Towards myself, towards others
But don’t let it show
Life’s all sunny
When you don’t want to know
As they said “Ignorance is bliss”

For the little lies I’ve been told
I don’t resent it
It kept me safe, sheltered, protected
Now, no walls, no roof, no lies to be seen
Life isn’t such a sweet little thing
Life’s harsh, cold, and unforgiving
Children should be children
But as they grow up they start to learn things
Hurtful words cursed them, making sure they regret living
Life is life
A bunch of experiences
Then you die
