I woke up again with a thumping chest,
I want to stop feeling the pain.

Trust me I have got a plan,
To never feel this way.

-

Keep me close,
Like I belong there.
Hold me tight,
Like it feels right.
Because your colours
look beautiful on my skin.

-

In ten years time,
I hope to not stay
In a small house with small windows,
But not too big of a house
to show my emptiness.

In ten years time,
I hope to not stay
In a small house with small windows,
But not too big of a house
to show my emptiness.

-

I lay on the unmade bed,
My head is heavy and my body is speaking.

I tried listening to my mind,
There is just too much noise.

One day I wish to free myself from this,
One day I will be still and quite,
One day I will be gone.

-

I believe in you, like I believe in myself.
When I can get through the pain,
Why can’t you ?

I think it’s brave,
I think you are capable,
I think it is all worth it, my friend.

-

I have my voice,
But you chose violence against me.
I respect my body,
But you pushed yourself on me.

What could we have done
To deserve a punishment like this ?

I lost my breath,
Because you see, the rapist is you.

-

Every morning I wake up
with the fear of being unknown.
Every night I sing myself to sleep
with the fear of being consumed.

How would the world be
without the fear of being alone?

-

I shouldn’t stay,
Because it is tearing me apart.

I cannot stay,
Because it is not feeling right.

But I will stay,
Because I feel like a flower is blooming inside of me.
