Trapped in a world where nobody hears your screams, your
dreams are just darkness
Hoping that one day you’ll remember what it felt like to
know how to breathe
Tragedy surrounds you, consumes you, yet none of it is
real
It’s all in your mind, a way to make you feel.
Recall and rejoice the few hours of fun, the moments just
before all was consumed
Once upon a memory, a girl had something to which she
could look forward
Now she only has pain and regrets and way to make herself
Forget who she is and forget all her dreams.
Used to be able to accept that feeling that used to well
up just below the surface
Hard enough to find inspiration, to attempt to do what
once was so mundane
Less motivation, more aggravation, no way to escape but
to fight through
Alone and confused, but what can she do?
What would you say if I said reach within you, see what
is right there, exposed
That hopelessness is the demon that rages inside you,
clawing to be free?
If I said that the poem were me, would you lay down
beside me?
Would you hold my hand and take this journey?
Let’s be free, you and me, forever, together, you can be
my cliché
I will love you and hold you and all that comes with you
If you simply accept that I too come with baggage
Our confusion creates the perfect marriage.
You allow me to see, what once used to be a world full of
harmony
I thank you for showing your truth and your knowing
Of what it truly means to be happy
Thank you, for showing me.
