Across the dark sky a glimmering light appears,
A small little glimpse of hope reveals itself,
Slowly the light grows stronger and brighter
Illuminating the darkness,
Draping the black with brilliant white light.

A simple thought takes over
Taking over your mind
Filling up your brain
Dancing around the thought of doing it
What if?
How?
Where?
When?
Writing down every last detail
Boxing up memories
Breaking hearts
Broken family
Lost their child
Killed herself
Wrote it all down
No one knew
No one thought
No one saved her.

The words leave my fingertips like a running faucet
Ideas flow from my brain like a stream
I loose myself in the words
Lost in my own reality
Not thinking
Not hearing
Not seeing
Go on instinct
Let the words take over your senses
Writing sooths the broken soul

Relive the past
For the past is part of you
The past made you who you are
The past can haunt you
It can break you
It can make you believe or run
Remember when...
Remember who...
Remember what...
Believe in the past to prepare for the future.

Sink to the bottom,
Stones crashing,
Flowers blooming,
Gasping for air,
Struggling to break free,
Birds chirping,
Warm afternoon sunshine,
Lungs scream for oxygen,
Head spinning,
Light fading,
Cars passing,
Bees buzzing,
Lifeless corpse,
Forever gone.

Oh where did my prince go?
The man I fell so hard for,
He stole my heart
Opened my mind,
And freed my soul.
My prince left me in the tower
He slayed the dragon but forgot the princess.
Oh where is my beloved prince?

I can't do it
I can't be the one you want me to be
I can't pretend like I'm okay
I can't continue to love you without it killing me
Slowly consuming me
Swallowing me whole
Draping me in a haze
I can't see
I can't hear
I can't think
The pain is too much
You have burned my heart
The sound of your name adds oxygen to the slowly burning embers
I am empty
I sink to my knees unable to breath
Through sobs and quick shallow breaths I whisper your name
The hole throbs sending piercing pain to each nerve
I curl up in a ball
The cold tiles on my back
Alone
Empty
Afraid
Heartbroken
You saved me
You burned me
You left me broken
And spit on my ashes
The pain I feel you will never know
A secret I keep from you as it consumes me
I am nothing
I am broken
I am alone.
Alone.
