Burning
Fleur Dec 2020
I’ve been sad for so long.
The world is still burning.
There’s nothing we can do.
Peace, I’m yearning.

I’ve been numb for so long,
Don’t know who I am.
I cry myself to sleep.
Living in dreams again.

I hurt people,
I don’t know why.
I’m lost in this world,
But I don’t want to die.

I’ve been sad for so long.
The world is still burning.
Why can’t I just be?
I’m tired of hurting.

Cursed
Fleur Dec 2020
I’m cursed.
I can’t find the words.
Fated from the start.
Dead since birth.

My mother didn’t want me.
My father, God knows.
My sister never liked me.
Maybe I’m cursed.

I have dreams and ideas
That I know will never come true.
Just like the world with God above me,
I’ll be cursed ‘til I am through.

I don’t want to be like this.
I try, I really do.
But deep down, maybe it’s true
That maybe, just maybe,
I’m cursed through-and-through.

— The End —
