Yesterday will forever be my favourite day
Because
Yesterday, you were mine
And yesterday the sun would still shine
I'd smile as I woke
I knew I was so rich in love
I never thought I would go broke
And yesterday is when you were still alive
When I still had my eldest brother by my side
Yesterday my parents were together
I still believed in a forever
It was yesterday when I loved myself
When I thought I was just as pretty as anyone else
And today
I am alone
I am sad
And I am only loved on the nights I give away my body to a man in which I don't know the name
I am only by my brothers side when I cry so much my whole body feels the same
My parents are only together when they are yelling at me
And I am only beautiful when the alcohol distorts my identity
I am disintegrating into a society that I don't believe in
And falling into a path of destruction and sin
Today I am not the me that I want to be


*Yesterday, I was.
