May 2014
My only company was the girl behind the glass
But as my veins start to fill with regret
The reflection in the mirror is harder to face
And the flaws on my skin surface on my silhouette

I sink to the ground and put my head on my knees
My last shaky breath parts my lips
And the salty demons fall from my eyes
Deeper I fall into my unwanted eclipse

I paint this picture not to mistake pain for beauty
This isn't my plea for help to feel
Nor my attempt to romanticize sadness
But I refuse to deny this feeling because it is raw and my God it is real

This is just an explosion of emotions
And I don't know which one to believe
Do I stand here and curse what I have become
Or do I let myself simply grieve
