Storyteller

This is the story of a girl

Whose heart was broken

Just one too many times

And each and every time

Her heart had been broken

She tried her best to repair it

With more crumbling away than before

And eventually it came to be

That she lost too many pieces

And couldn’t keep it all together

So she left her heart laying

In a crumpled heap forever

And she began to go on

With nothing beneath her eyes

She was so determined to live

Even if she had nothing to live for

And even if she knew it wasn’t worth it

Yet there came a day

That she needed her heart

And she found it still in its heap

She picked up what she could

Trying not to let any slip between her fingers

And slowly put the pieces back together

And despite knowing how shattered it was

From being broken time and time again

She simply couldn’t go on without it.

Hopelessness

Each day

Brings new chances

Each day

Brings new hope

But each day

Evil creeps upon

Waiting for the weak

Waiting for that moment

When happiness

Is all we see

All we desire

Only then

Will it overtake

Showing you

There is no hope…

Hopelessness Pt 2

…For hope

Is just a mystery

A fantasy

Into another world

A world that doesn’t exist

We pride ourselves

In believing it does

We shield ourselves

From the truth

We lie without knowing

We soon begin

To believe it’s true

Yet it isn’t

And it never will be.

Can I

Can I see right through you

To find the truth in you

Without losing

Everything

I have worked for

Can I survive this night

Even though tomorrow

Might not ever come

And immerse myself in you

Without being absorbed

Can I begin to trust you

When all around you

Are lies meant to deceive

And twist you away from me

From everything I ever loved.

Days

Its days like this

That lead to nights

Of wishing to disappear

Of feeling tears yet

Not being able to cry

Avoidance

It’s terrifyingly easy.

Act like nothing is wrong.

Soon maybe it’ll fade away.

Soon you
