Travesties ignited
Fractured as
Life hammered away
Like a sad song on repeat
Apologies like raindrops
They never stuck
Forgiving has always
Been one of my
Biggest obstacles
Maybe one day I can find it in myself
Like the decompressing
Headaches
I needed an outlet
Couldn’t see it till now
Reliving the same ole stories
How the heck
Can you shake such a rut
As the insanity set in
He saw
The best in me despite my flaws
Yet I continued
To label myself a fraud
Life hadn’t taught
Me any better
Betrayals like the wounds
That never go away
And I’ll always live with
The shame that wore
Me like a wholly sweater
But it doesn’t have to define
My whole story
I’m never proud
Admitting the truths
That should never be murmured
Outside these walls
Numbing myself never accomplished
Much in life
Life burnt through me
Like a pack of smokes
I finally put down for good
As the dim light came to daylight
I had an epiphany get out of your own
Way and start living
Or get busy dying a little faster
