Heartbreak filled with hope
Home is where the heart cannot
No more hopeful memories
Hope shattering
Leaving behind only broken glass
Shards of mirrored memories
Slice delicately through my skin
Leaving nothing but the scars
Scars from the greatest sin
What is a sin?
Harming others?
Conformation?
You want me to be like you
Bleed like you
Yet my blood runs black
Black as the night sky
Where I feel at home
The night sky
Scars fade to look like stars
Stars in the night sky
Save me!
From him?
From myself?
How do I save me?
How do I save myself?
