He told me he doesn't recognize me anymore
but when i tell him I'm the same person i was a year ago
My tongue starts to burn
I know I'm lying
That girl i see in the mirror
She can't be me.

So pale, you can see straight through her
Circles under her eyes like they've been carved with a knife
Skin so fragile, the touch of a feather would shatter her
Bones so defined
She seems so hollow

She can't be me
She can't be me
She can't be me

But everytime i feel her staring back at me
I see her in my shadow

Calling Me Home

My head rests on the root of the tree
Thoughts roaming through my head
Wind rushing through my ears
Clouds surrounding my pupils
Dirt slowly burying my body
Nature is calling me home
And I've been so lost
Every path just a wrong turn
With a dead end
I can't battle with life anymore
So I decide to give up the fight
And let the earth swallow me

Wise words

Its not always what we planned or thought it would be, but its what we got and sometimes when the darkeness fades, it's golden and it's greater than we expected.

Something my therapist told me

"You have this fire inside of you, a fire so bright it would blind you if you ever saw it. A fire you cant blow out with a couple breaths, a fire so intense that water just makes it burn stronger. I dont know how you do it, after all thats happend to you. But you just stand back up. Day after day, you do it again. And what makes me love you more, is that you dont feel sorry for yourself. After everything, you wake up ready to fight whatever demons come next."

Forever Changing

Life is forever changing
Each day like the coming
And leaving
Of the ocean tide

Life is forever changing
Just like the moon
One day its the crescent
And another its whole

Life is forever changing
Every moment is different
Like the sky
One day its blue
And filled with color
The next its dull and dark

Life is forever changing
And sometimes it feels
Like its running away from you
And each step you take
You cant seem to catch it
No matter how fast you run
Or how hard you try
All you get
Is a glimpse
In the corner of your eye

Dead Flower

You planted me as a seed
I started to grow
Into a beautiful flower
I grew with love
And life
But you took my roots from the ground
And threw them in the trash
Now all my petals are falling
As I'm slowly dying

Sun Kissed Skin

~ We miss the nights
Filled with starlight skies
Drinking till our words
Are slurry
And are vision
Is blurry
Laughing by the fire
Our thoughts are intertwined
With one another

We miss the mornings after
Filled with moans
And groans
Waking up to a messy hair
Boy on your left
Smiling to the soft morning air

We miss the days
Filled with a summer haze
The sun kissed our skin
Making our lives
Colorful again ~
