RIPPED AND TORN INTO PIECES
ALL SELF CONFIDENCE DECREASES
NOTHING LEFT EXCEPT BITS OF ME
A FRAGMENT OF WHO I USED TO BE

Don't make promises you can't keep,
people will have broken trust and saddened hearts
I whispered "I'll never do it again" and she believed me
I looked straight into her eyes
Not exactly lying, because I meant what I said
It was just a promise I couldn't keep
A tale I told to make her feel better
But she found out i didn't keep my word
now all I have left is our broken trust and my saddened heart

Miss me

I'm hoping
One of these days
That when I sleep
For hours on end
I won't wake up
Because maybe
My brain will forget
How to breath
While my mind
Drifts to different dreams
And maybe
I won't have to
Face another dreadful
Day

And maybe,
Just maybe,
You'll miss me.

Feeling the damp wood on my thighs
Humming a tune and closing my eyes
Awaiting the arrival of my friend
To come and take me to my end
Wearing my prettiest dress
Hair in a tangled mess
I can hear the whistle off in the distance
I'm at the end of my existence

When I was little
my mama
told me
not to move,
to stay
at the same spot

She told me
I must stay still
if I ever get lost

She told me to wait
until
somebody finds me

so
that's what i've been doing
ever since
Are you on your way?
I am still waiting.

Sometimes I can't handle being inside my skin
I want to break out of this cell
The walls, the ceiling, the floor
They're closing in on me
These bars are pressing into my side
My stomach is going to burst
All I want is to
Rip out my brain
And tear out my thoughts

But I can't move.
