Today I woke up at peace

I’m learning to use logic to explain the hurt

I’m like an open book now
Despite my pages being creased

I’m beginning a new story
One that I do not know

But I’m excited to read it
I’ll go with the flow

Hey mom

    

I remember how you made life fun despite the consequences
Everyday life became an adventure
And every bad time just a passing treasure

Leave a message after the beep

That was what the phone used to say when you were away and money was tight,

I would pretend you were there and talk anyways,

Because a girl without her mom
Gives her rainy days.
