Time is forever changing
Yet my heart is forever vacant.
[The vacant lots
Where hatred rots,
Not out of a lack of love
But an abundance of being never good enough]

I've grown old
but I haven't grown up
And somewhere out there
Someone appreciates me for that
And that is more than enough.
I have seen my
years go by like a falling star
crashing in between passing cars
I have seen my heart fall farther than
the sight of the sky from
the naked eye.
I've grown old
but I haven't grown up
It's ingrained in the way I behave
Like denim that defines jeans as jeans
I've been over scenes and scenes of my life
and yet I remain the same.
It's ingrained in the way
I behave
It's in
my

she was once filled with
life,
fruit,
purity,
strength,
confidence,
like a summer leaf.

but

then autumn came, and storms began to come and form into her mind,
the nights became colder,
just like her heart.
and just like that,
she lost everything,
and slowly fell unto the ground
to join the rest of the dead.
"she used to be unique and happy, until reality came along; ruining everything."

I knew a girl once
Pure to the pinch of a petal
But lust filled fiends found her
Unfazed to the thought of intimacy
and so distorted intimacy to twisted turns
claiming her sweet nectar as she lay unawake.

I knew a girl once
Pure to the pinch of a petal... no more.
...
Pure to the pinch of a petal;
the twisted turns did burn
and the ashes and embers cast away
into the winds as though no fault to find,
I knew a girl once
who knew of the world;
I knew a girl once
who knew of the future;
I knew a girl once
who smiled a slanted smile;
I knew a girl once
...But not anymore, do I know her.

May god find her the peace she never found.
