The past has become scars and pains
Trapped in its bars and chains
Let's look towards the stars and move forward with what remains

I cough words
onto a page,
and hold it up to the world.
They call it art, they call it poetry.

escape reality,
looking for light,
but always ending up in the darkness

I wish I had some meaning

In this meaningless world.

It's been a while, hasn't it?

I sometimes wonder
If you remember me at all,
Beneath your stressful days
And endless nights.

Do you remember me?

I have hidden here,
Waiting
Just for you.

Because I am you.

You are not the girl I used to know,
Not the one you used to be.
But that's okay,
I have changed too.

Have we both grown by leaps and bounds?

I wish you all the best,
But please
I beg of you.

Do not forsake me.
