Today's a brand new day, new adventures, new thoughts and ideas, new emotions, new questions.
Today's a brand new day and you could change your life around and rebuild your life and get yourself going down the right road and make more light in the world somehow, maybe even if that's just by not hiding who you are and speak your thoughts to some other than a page of notebook paper.

Today is a brand new day. It's up to you to break normality and not make it just another typical day.
Keep looking, you'll see it. I swear.
Note that's taped up on my mirror, I read as I get ready in the morning before school.
Sora Dec 2013
The frames
Tunneling us enough to cloak the rays of diversity, of possibilities
The normality shaded a charcoal black, sprayed over us
Stinging the eyes of those who could see the spectrum
Blinding the ones who walked down the colored roads from the coliseum to the Twin Towers
People hung up on the walls, stapled to the confinements of society's critics
As if a snowflake would make them unloved, unseen, unwanted, unworthy of living and chasing happiness

Nobody can be there to comfort you
No one can be there to let the rain ease
Nobody can make you smile
But yourself
And the book's stacked on the sore shelves have taught us the opposite

Through the words strung around your front door
And the shades covering your walls
You can bust that choking frame apart that you might be trapped in
And create one that doesn't shift to make the papers tell society you're normal
That nothing's wrong with you, that you are not a sinner, and that you are not hell bound

Spiraling, collapsing, destroying, breaking, slashing
The ideas of ties over flat chests and the long hair to the ones with the *******

Finding your spectrum may **** off the clouds
And you may be blinded
But the colors come out from beneath your feet

And

Diversity thrives in the wonderland
That not everyone comes to witness

Follow me down into the rabbit's hole
To discover your frame, your life, your portrait
Your spectrum is not society's

Stinging eyes to the ones who see the spectrum
And the scars to the ones who have already painted their own
They have more to tell

The kicking
And pounding
Like an old
Rustic
Blazing hot
Iron Horse

And the revolutions
Over and over again
They scream like an orchestra
Through the night that was started
so silent

Treading
Breaking
Sinking
Breathing
Shaking
Trying
Giving­
Surrendering

And it's a work in progress
Safety
Security
Trust
Assurance

Combined
At what is now
The Architects
Finest work

And we call it our home
I call it our dream
And you,
my heart

The ripped out
crumpled
torn
papers that held
a surprise
has been taped back into the book

She never wanted to adopt
She had
3 miscarriages
So her only resort was adoption

And she ended up with me
A shredded flag that used to be
Something she enjoyed
Sora Dec 2013
Look her in the eyes
With my own war veiled eyes
Look her in the eyes
Try not to shy away.

Please
Girl
Come back to me
Don't leave me
Don't let this
monster, this darkness
this
boy fitting into the cracking skin of a girl
take me over

Look her in the eyes
Try not to look away
Look and see
All the hidden rejection, the hurt, the longing, the numbness
That you made her feel

Look her in the eyes
Try not to say sorry
Because somehow
You were meant to destroy your adoptive mother
And be abandoned by your biological one

Look her in the eyes
Try not to
*Shy away

And I used to be just like you are
But I survived and I'm not just selling
False Hope
Just handing out
Your painfully truthful Fates

No, I am a walking almanac
And I can tell you that in eight months
You will still be trapped down in this dark

I wish you make the best of your time down here
Because this is as bright as it'll get for you.

Goodbye and Good Luck.

Sometimes Love cannot
save us
Only we can be the ones
to save ourselves
So put down your hearts
unlock your lips
if only for a minute to hear
We are only as strong as ourselves,
not our partners. No, never our partners.
So become the
greatest
most stable
YOU.
Afterall, it's two
Wholes.
Not
Two halves that make up a couple

And I know
it's scary to be alone
but you are the
only
one
that
matters
at
the
end
of
the
day.

If your partner dies
one day
You, you don't die with them.
You still have to
get up
breathe
see
live

You are still here
So make yourself matter.
