#flyaway
he hurt me he hurt me so much I couldn't breathe I poured myself into him I gave my all. yet he still let me fall now it's almost Christmas eve and now maybe just maybe I want to breathe I want to forget about him I want to spread my wings and leave leave him and the hurt behind but there's one thing keeping me tethered I still care. I care so much it's unfair I don't love him anymore no but I still miss the happy times when we laughed and talked and kissed danced in the rain because we wanted to try it, I miss his hoodie the soft warmth. yet I should let go I know, I know, I know. but still the memories keep me still I should focus on fixing me picking up the pieces of my heart and let myself walk away. I know, I know, I know its been a couple months now and I still think of him that smile those green eyes but now I want to fly let go so maybe I should fly away, fly away let to the sky and fly away I know, I know, I know you said I was pretty and when you said that you caught my wing I wanted to stay because I felt that way then I didn't. I cried. God, I cried and cried and cried because why hurt me so much? I didn't deserve it you ripped my heart to shreds and stomped on the remains "but he hurt you" I know I know I know I remember the days I starved I remember the days I locked myself in the bathroom so no one, no one could see me cry. see how utterly broken you left me like a vase shattered into pieces I'm ok now, maybe, maybe, maybe I'm going to forget. I will. well not entirely but the pain will be gone I'll be ok. ok. I know, I know, I know.

I am a child of nature, a force undeniable a warm April rain that will never stop falling an element of life I can't stop wanting the wind beneath my feet to set my soul free, and drift on clouds aimlessly like a baby bird, abandoned, and never taught how to fly by instinct needs its freedom to survive it pounds through my veins to follow what calls to me and never give up in trying to be, all that is ME and want to run, to escape from all that haunts and hurts me to fly away but every time I jump from the cliffs of life and spread my wings inevitably, the gravity of reality pulls me back down you see it's not the final fall that hurts the most or the crashing into the ground it's that never-ending drop of eternal emptiness that feeling of constant descent that lump that forms in the back of your throat blocking your breath it's the painful tightening and panic piercing in your chest it's that fear of F E E L I N G of loving deeply and losing even deeper of living without meaning and longing for something more of knowing life is short, but death is forever and feeling as if you're caught somewhere in-between here and there so, I stand still too scared to move not knowing any more what to do because I've never been very good at living without the promise of a heartbeat and it seems I've forgotten how to breathe on my own but I can't escape these memories that haunt me and running away only brings me back to where I started standing here, alone ::sighs:: it's all too familiar, these days that are passing me by always coming then going like the people, and the lost moments of my life ::sighs:: leaving me, without having the courage to face the mirror of reality of why they left and me standing there, alone looking in a mirror with no reflection if only I could learn to fly away. ©️ Dark Water Diaries

Summertime and the holidays I'm off to the coast Yea! Off to the sunny seaside Breezin' down the highway with my window wide open The music blaring on the radio Got my bags all packed in the back Got my swimming trunks in, my beach towel, beach ball.... and my wonderful inflatable woman. At the hotel I unpack, I get her out At first she's a bit flat She's like my very own genie in a bottle When I uncork her,  start to pump her up   It's then...it's then the magic starts At first she flounders and writhes about Then suddenly she grows bigger, she becomes *****   she rears up I know what my three wishes are gonna be With her lovely ***** salacious look   I know what she's thinking "Is Sargeant Sausage, is he coming out to play" Why! You little hussey you little **** Big and bouncy, so pink and soft and wowzy My wonderful wibbebly wobbly wonder girl How I love her lovely curves, all her lovely hills and valleys She's so pneumatic she's... she's absolutely fantastic Great big bonging bangers  I lose myself in her, squeeze her tightly Like a big big balloon she carries me away from all the cares of the day...far faraway She's incredible!  She's amazing!!   (Careful not to bite her though , I did that once She started to hiss, then she went off flying, farting all around the room). I made me a tape of conversations from movies Girls saying sweet things to their fellas, I play it when she's there Looking at me across the room O!  she's so sweet, so understanding She never criticises, is so undemanding If only all girls could be that way. The two of us together Man! She's a fine bit of rubber We make a good.... a lovely couple Just me...me and my wonderful...my wonderful inflatable woman.

She just wished that she could fly she could just grow wings and soar high above her problems and her life fly away to a place that took her away

Wings
Oh ugly butterfly They think less of you When you were a caterpillar There was hope The children caught you Placed you in a jar Picked you leaves And watched you grow Hatched From a cocoon Sprouted wings But "oh no" They were not colorful The children released you Just let you go "Fly away ugly butterfly" They scream and shout "We do not love you for you are not beautiful"

life is like a flower
Sleep away into the reality of illusions.. The night and day reversed. Into the infinite time you'll travel. Floating in the air with your head twisted back. In your eyes u see the darkness revealing itself . Relieving u from the harness of light . U close your eyes trying to escape the reality. But with the dust and wind, u are surrounded. Taking u to the next dimension. U might have an iron hand, but your brain is much stronger. With the force of your imagination, u immigrate. The foreign land and the foreign sky may sweep you away. The tempting lights in front of ur eyes, a false hope . Tricked by the illusion, like the curse of a witch. You are doomed to live inside of your head! Like a white stripe entering into the prism . U burst out laughing letting out the rainbow colors of the sky. When u spit out, the ****** red color appears . Everything turns to black, carrying the darkness along .. U swim in the stormy clouds. There's no left or right No wrong or right. Everything is an illusion. A dark black morbid illusion...

A Morbid Illusion.
As I stand at the edge of the ledge, My feet dangle. Creating the music you used to sing. I rethink,   and your old words push my mind. "If you're so sad why don't you jump?" those were your exact words, father. Maybe, I'll try to fly but your words will push me down. My body will go numb, as my screams create waves in the chilly water. And then I'll swim away

Fly away
Not again The dull ache in my heart is back The heart that beats for you Although you don’t know it Is about to break. Not because of someone else But because of you. I can see the way you look at me Like my eyes are your world. At least that’s how I look at you. My heart lives in your soul. And it’s beating to keep me alive. So please, don’t let me go Like I’m a simple flower petal to the wind. Soon you’ll find out about my hidden feelings for you. Either you’ll brush them off like dust Or nurture them into living

"she falls asleep at night knowing that for other people tomorrow is a new day ..."
how does a bird fly if he cant appreciate his own wings and realize that those wings can take him places that he has never been before to see the mountain tops above the orange horizon sky into the deep blue nothing above to see new beauties that have gone unseen but if the bird can never see that the only thing that can lift him are his wings then he will never truly learn to fly and if he never learns what his wings can do then how will he ever become truly himself

Loved Like Flight By A Bird
You fly away leaving your past behind Soaring through the clouds Reaching unbelievable heights - Because that's all this is an unbelievable dream A vision of leaving the past behind A dream of taking flight and getting away - Free as bird If only you could fly away

Fly Away
In the thinly spindly Glen Resides a lonely clucking hen. Strut and peck, flutter and fluff The bugs she eats are never enough. Leaves ripple with the sound Whispered quiet a question resounds, "Why not fly South this year? Freezing frost will soon be here."

Fly
Wish upon a star; Go on, fly away far; Home is ever so lonely now; Both painful and true; You left, quite out of the blue; My child, please come home; I'll play all your favourite games; Even the one in the frightful brown mud! Cold and alone; This house full of memories; I want to go with you; Oh, please take me away; Aren't the tales real? Pirates and Pan and Lost Boys too?

Fly Away
she stands in front of the mirror hands shaking her reflection is not defined as 'beautiful' her standards are too high she has an eating disorder she thinks she's fine but she's not soon an angel will come to take her away an angel with beauty that astounds even God just like 'her' only whole she doesn't see the pain she causes herself or others she wants to be beautiful she doesn't need all this pain and suffering to keep her demons away she needs wings and a prayer what she needs she doesn't get. To be happy she needs to be somewhere else she needs to fly.

Do you know the feeling?     needles lining your rib cage You can't take a deep breath.     cant calm the earthquakes So Breath for me     live for me Take my hand    hold it steady Because I'm ready    to fly myself home
