(Longish Read) ------------------------ Coming home to a face I don't recognize She always has a way of coming back to me Her home is my butterfly garden The one place nobody else has ever seen She's poisoned my butterflies But I've wilted my own Rose I'm stuck in my own creations of hell; Captivating thoughts of what could've been Captivating dreams where she visits me Some would say "Why're you stressing? Everything you're experiencing is a part of a blessing." But that's wrong, because this "blessing" is what keeps me constantly stressing She left her mark and I solidified it She gave me scars that I deepened She told me things that have consumed me And now... From these scars, her mark, and her words I'm trying to piece together an some sort of an escape from my own personal creation... My own personal hellscape
