Scars

‘A multitude of scars decorate my skin. Your touch takes me in and I forget that I ache. I forget that my heart is broken inside my rib cage. That I have aged a thousand years in the span of mere minutes. And then as suddenly as you had come you are gone...

My soul lingers on and on. Empty promises keep me up at night. I wait for something to jolt me out of my reverie. You never come. You're never there. Suffering is all I have, it is all I had. A constant companion.

I was built from stars but you crushed me and scattered my ashes all over. Now, I exist as a black hole. Dangerous, dark, and unstable. Consuming, consuming until I'm gone...’

Mad

‘She was mad in a wonderful sort of way. She let herself be consumed by him. He sought her out and she fell. Fell fast and hard. She gave away so much of herself that at last nothing was left for her. She wept at nights and when the sun would shine you would only see her features graced with a smile. She never could tell you the true extent of her broken heart. But, she could heal your pain with her words. She'd only wanted to be loved but she withered away like an embalmed corpse.’

If I Could...

'If I could, I would create a new world. And our love would shine as the brightest star guiding all of life. I would be yours forever, and you would be mine. We’d wake up next to each other… Alas, I cannot create more than these words that I write, and this I’ll regret forever…'

Bigger on the Inside

I am little pieces sewed together,
I am the quotes of books I read,
I am the lyrics to a song that I sing,
I am the happiness reflected on my screen,
I am the girl who dreams big dreams.

I am the thoughts that I think,
I am the love that I bleed,
I am the people that do not exist,
I am all the beauty that remains unseen,
I am the girl who dreams big dreams.

I am sorrow, grief, and envy,
I am laughter, madness, and ecstasy,
I am sleepless nights and gloomy days,
I am broken and fixed, quite not the same…

I am fragile,
But oh,
I am so much bigger on the inside.
