you'd think I'd be the calm after the storm;
but inside this ball of sunshine,
I am nothing but a raging storm.

somewhere behind that never ending darkness,
is someone who wants to be loved
and treasured;

someone whose waiting and waiting,
despite of the fact that it's slowly

you can't see it because it's always behind
the shadows,

waiting for the time that you'll gradually

to love yourself for once that
it's slowly covered in bruises and scars;

far too long that it's almost covered itself in
a labyrinth of pain with the hopes of
what could've been and
what could never been;

and maybe,
it's finally time to give yourself a
little rest.
