Fragile self: bleed.
Abandoned puzzle: incomplete.
No stars shining in the night.
No sun rising in the east.
Forever dawned upon the darkness,
Nightmares; eternity of fear.
Thoughts recurring; creating pain,
Terror nothing can endear.
Don't extend your hand to me.
I'm no damsel in distress.
I need no knight in shining armor.
I know how to clean my own mess.
Don't say you'll be here for me.
Seasons alter; lies behold.
You'll never be able to fix me anyway,
My wounds will heal on their own.
Fingers crossed on broken promises;
Deception in the eyes of man.
People leave; people lie.
I'll save myself while I can.
I will be fine.
I'll be alright.
I won't give up yet.
I can still fight.
I will be my own sun.
I will light up my own day.
I will put stars in my own night.
I will drive my own fears away.
Things will be different.
Things will go wrong.
But life will go on.
And I will go on,
On my own.
