Her touch was perfect
Her smile, perfect.
Her hair, so perfect.
She laughed with joy.
Her eyes showed sadness
Her hands shake with anxiety
Her smile is broken
Her nails done, but some are peeling
She was perfect to me.
Her laugh
smile
touch
hair
eyes.
Everything was perfect.
Her hair the color of fire.
Her eyes the color of grass
Her lips the color of roses.
Her skin the color of sand.
She was cute before.

Now...
Now the little girl who I watched grow up is the women she needs to be.
The little girl I had to give up so long ago.
The girl who loved me.
The girl who showed me what unconditional love is.
To my best friend since the age of 4.
You are so beautiful.
well... this is a thing... enjoy.

My Love
Maddy Novak Apr 2018
Rosy cheeks
Pink lips
Tan skin
Blue eyes
***** blond hair
Your laugh was loud as thunder
but soft like a kitten
Your eyes were the ocean
I was never afraid to swim
Your hair was the color of the sand
You were tall
I was short
Oh how much we fit.
I miss your smell
The smell of the beach
And the smell of a bakery.
You mean the world to me, my love.
I love you.
To the one who forgot I loved you.

Welcome to society. The world of no escape.
Welcome to society. Where you always bleed.
Welcome to society. Where you'll be locked away.
Welcome to society. Where you'll barely alive.
Welcome to society. I hope you enjoy your stay.
Welcome to the world we live in

Demons
Maddy Novak Mar 2018
I'm fine. My demons are sleeping. So I'm fine. They sleep every now and then. They let me rest and be fine. But then they wake up. They wake up my anxiety and my depression. I'm fine. My demons fight. I'm fine. They throw chairs. I'm fine. They throw tables. I'm fine. My demons cry out of anger. I'm fine... They laugh at my tears. I'm fine... They comfort me when I'm sad. I'm fine. My demons rest. I cry in peace. I'm fine... When they rest, I can finally sleep. My demons are awake again. I'm fine... I'm going to stay in bed. They say I'm not depressed. I'm fine... They take down walls. They take down cities. They take down countries. I'm fine... I smile through the tears. I smile through the pain. Help! I'm screaming. I'm not fine... They make me put on a happy face. I'm not okay... I'm not fine... I am depressed... My demons throw things. They break things. Every day is a new fight. Noone sees it because they won't let me show it. I smile... I'm not okay... I'm breaking... My demons are tearing me from the inside. I'm broken... My demons win every time and no one understands. And I can't make you. My demons are sleeping. I'm broken. And I welcome a new fight with a helpless breath. My Anxiety.
Form my heart to the page. Man does that scare me... I hope you enjoy.
