Things could be....
Better

I could be a child.
So innocent and free.
No judgement, no pain.
Just you and me.
Colorblind

I could be in love.
Never facing the lonesome cold.
Soaring through the clouds.
Feeling untouchable, heart of gold.
Uplifted

I could be fixed.
No more pain, Nor sorrow.
These imperfections vanished.
Within a brighter tomorrow
Whole

I could be a hero.
Braver than before.
Fighting for purpose.
Honoring life throughout its core.
Free

What I could be,
And what I am.

Healed.
The scars of yesterday.
The lessons of tomorrow.
Upon the horizon,
Lined in a row.
What I am..

Brave.
Facing the truth.
Words left unsaid.
Engraved images.
Reflecting in my head.
What I am..

Unforgettable
I write the words.
The ones you couldn't see.
Restless in my skin.
Pretending in time
What I am..
