When I'm on my own,
The world is clear.
When I'm on my own,
Everything makes sense.
When I'm on my own,
I feel everything.
When I'm on my own,
I feel the joy.
When I'm on my own,
I feel the pain.
When I'm on my own,
I feel the rage.
When I'm on my own,
I wish I could turn back time.
When I'm on my own,
I wish things could change.
When I'm on my own,
I miss you..
When I'm on my own,
I want to be here with you.
Being alone happens. Its normal. We can still enjoy life, but sometimes just having someone there who wants to experience the world as much as you do is the best experience you could ever have..

I see you.
The real you.
Not the girl who has succumbed.
But the girl who is trying to change what she has become.
I see past the scars and fake smiles and nervous laughter.
And see longing for the life you sought after.
The life outside the broken past.
The life of happiness that will forever last.
You tried to fill it time after time,
But instead bury with choices laced with grime.
You hope the path you walk now will lead you to it.
Though sadly its not true
Not one bit.
The path you walk will bury you more,
So much so your wings will never let you soar.
Trapped in a cage, that you claim to enjoy,
But to be honest love, it feels like its all a ploy.
Not to live, but to simply survive.
And you and i both know, that is no way to thrive.
I can see you.
The real you
The only question now is
Do you?
I wrote this about a specific person. Someone who i care about deeply and see them making the same mistakes that caused so much pain and damage before. However, this work can also be used to describe persons of both genders.
