To be proud of where you are,
you need to remember where you came from

-

Every time the brush strokes across the canvas,
It paints the blue for my calm,
yellow for my sanity, and
purple & the pastels for the eye that misses beauty

-

I am crying with my eyes closed,
like a million times before,
memories of a tragedy I couldn't control.
Scars that will never go.

-

There are days I'm falling for myself,
There are days I'm falling out of myself

-

I wake up everyday
sleeping on the inside

-

Mornings don't excite people,
afraid of waking up.
Nights don't excite people,
afraid of being left behind

-

Insomnia keeps me sane,
because the voices are so loud.
I can only hear myself
when the lub dub finds it's way around

-

Somethings are difficult to say
instead I pen them down,
among the crumpled papers is the story
of my world turned upside down

-

I am wearing a harness,
ready to fall.
It is scary, but the daisies and
champagne are worth the fall

-

It's pouring outside,
I'm listening to songs
with a plate of happiness in my hand,
Reminiscing about the times we held hands and
Jumped in the water holes
