Tears in my eyes
That won't fall
Heart that's being ripped apart
But won't tear
Body that's shaking
And won't still
Stuck at the breaking point
Of everything
The point that hurts the most
The point after a long struggle
And before the relief
There is no relief for me
My tears won't fall
And my heart won't give
And my body won't stop shaking
There's no relief for me

Life is just a fantasy
In the light of day
But in the dark of night
That's when my demons come out to play
They whisper and fester
Beneath my skin
They tell me I'm worthless
That I'll never win
They fight all the light
And drag out the darkness
All my pain is renewed
My sorrow and my sickness
They hide behind my eyes
While my life passes me by
But when I'm quiet at night
They're always nearby
To tell me I'm nothing
And to keep me contained
To shake me and break me
While I'm still chained
By my past insecurities
And deepest fears
My demons are my life at night
And have destroyed all I hold dear.

“If you can find the problem in your life,
Then you can cut it out.”
But what if my problem is me?
What if everything that I'm trying to run away from
Is myself?
What can I do?
I can't escape it no matter how hard I try.
I can't cut out myself
Because my problem has consumed me
It is me.
Wrote this a while ago :)

I'm so sorry
I'm sorry for everything
Everything I've done to you
I know that I did it
Even though you might not
But it was me
And I'm so sorry
I couldn't control any of it
I didn't know I was doing it
And I was stupid enough to think I wasn't hurting you
And I'm sorry
Words can't express how my head is spinning
And my heart aches
Just thinking about what I did to you
And how I can't turn back time and fix it
I'm so sorry
I really am. I'm sorry.

On an endless journey
To find myself
I've come so far.
But then again, I've gone nowhere.
I found new sides of myself
But I lost everything I had
I lost the parts of myself that I'd already discovered
I lost the friends and the family that I had
I lost happiness,
Only to find less of what I wanted.
I found myself, but in the process
Lost myself

If I've learned anything
It's that you don't always get what you want.
Life isn't like the movies
Make it out to be:
People don't follow the script in your head,
Your plans for the future
Aren't what's in store for you,
Expectations can crumble
In an instant,
Everything you tried for
Turned to dust in a second.
That's just the course of life.
have a good day :)
