Mar 2017
It's been so long since I was able to feel this
This overwhelming power of the sorrow I thought left me
The sorrow that left me shivering on the ground all alone
Like a child not getting what he/she wants
Watching this whole forest I've grown burnt down in front of my face
Walking as it burns around me knowing there's nothing I can do
But play in these ashes of the memories you held the closest to you
My lungs swollen from these breaths that turn into screams
Not able to breath well from the amount of ash I'm breathing in
I look back to how I was so happy as the song jingles in my ear
Reminding me of someone I cared about
How I hurt her and knowing that I lost something that meant something to me
Even if the song isn't playing it rings in my ear
How blind I was how stupid I've been and how scared I am of my future
I'm alone no matter how many people say I'm not
Alone is the only place I belong
