Where I'm From

by saff

I’m from hopelessness, Where self-mutilation looks classy. I’m from defenselessness, Where bruises turn red instead. I’m from the Land of Oz, Where the long winding road seems endless. My glittery shoes seem broken though. I’m stuck in a world I don’t deserve. My sorrow evident, my suffering clear. Life’s not so bad when your living in fear. I’m from frustration and envy, I just don’t know why. A comfortable lifestyle is easy to come by. Stuffed bear by my side, he swallows my tears. I’m from the moments I spend, hiding away. I sympathize with Rosaline, How was she to know? Snubbing Romeo would be so disastrous. Or Snow White, so close to death; Yanked back by an uninvited kiss.
