Night after night tears would fill my eyes
Hatred would consume my mind with all their lies
My body was my personal battle ground
Full of open flesh releasing blood
My own proof that I was still alive
Every day was a struggle for life or death
Alone I thought i was
I carved it on my arm
No one could break the walls
That I surrounded myself with
I never let anyone in
For fear that they would leave
I lost my mind once
A few years ago
And hope and faith, all that was good
All it took was one day....
One face.
Orange, curly hair and blue eyes
The way your face lit up when you saw me
It's funny the way things work out
My childhood best friend
How I've missed your gentle touch
It's been 14 years since we've talked
And all it took was one smile to find me
A girl who has been lost for far too long <3
