I want to kiss you, to feel your soft lips against mine. I need to stay away, I know my kind and I'll leave you hurting every night. I want to be numb, to turn myself away from the world, away from the dark crevices in my prison we call a mind. I need to feel something anything, to connect with people who will set my soul on fire. I want to close my eyes, swear away the world and all the people who have hurt me. I need to open my eyes, accept what has happened and move forward. I want to breakdown and curl up in a ball. I need to keep my chin up, wipe away my tears and push my way forward. I want to hate, so I can move on. I need to love, so I can hold on... ~P.S.
