Blue Bird

Blue Bird

All alone inside of my magical little paradise called my mind is an peaceful and quiet, the sun is like a gentle kiss on the cheek, and the people are just so warm and friendly but watch out because if you open your eyes everything you once knew will be gone. This magical little realm has an bloody little twist to it. The sun that was once as comforting as an warm blanket was in fact the glistening moon and the empty black sky, and the people are now all blood thirsty monsters that are no longer affected by the sun light are now out for blood.

I run to escape the sickening but yet oh so enticing scent of blood and failure, I run to escape the screams of those who's lives were cut just too short, and I run to escape the sight of the undead, blood thirsty zombies who are on the hunt for others to join their group. I'm running, running to safety and security but all the time there's nothing but pit falls and traps. I'm running and success isn't that far away but just then I see prince charming I stop and become distracted by his promising words but just then he too becomes a monster. I scream and try to run but I just can't you trap me in fire and I can't escape. 

My mind goes numb, I can feel the darkness further enclose around me, my mind goes blank, and I forget about everything. On the inside I'm screaming, fighting, kicking to get away but on the outside I'm a love sick puppy. I know I'm stronger than this but there's something about you that I just can't get over. Just as the darkness seems to grow closer an light appears and an blue bird fights off my nightmare monster and takes me back to my snowy paradise where I'm safe and at peace and I continue my lonely dark and cold path to my brightly lite future with the little blue bird by my side reminding me that I am and will forever be loved by both my family, people who actually care about me, and god.

Lose To Win

Lose To Win

In your arms I once felt just so safe, so warm, and just so happy that I truly had believed that I had finally found my one and only superhero but just as I opened my eyes somehow the arms that once had made me feel just so secure are now slowly pushing me away, the eyes that showed so much promise are now full of nothing but sorrow and pain, and the once beautiful glowing warmth that surrounded my heart is now an bitter icy cold snowy reminder of what used to be.

Where did the time go, When did the season's start changing, and when did you stop loving me? I've tried holding onto what little of your heart I had left but what use is it holding onto one half if the other person already dropped and left your half? You'll never understand how deeply my love was for you, you'll never understand how many times, hours, minutes, or second I had spent thinking bout you, you'll never understand how many tears I've had spent on you.My heart is tired of waiting for you to accept me and stop playing me like as though I'm a doll. My ma taught me to never ever hold onto a love that was never even there from the very beginning and she raised an strong girl, stubborn and foolish but still strong.

The question that I'm asking is "What am I going to do now?" Well I'm going to let go of your half of the heart, pick mines back up, and continue traveling in my dark and snowy paradise where I'm all alone and my heart can heal slowly with time. Sometime you have to lose in order to win an even sweeter prize in the future.
