Cure for Me
I remember when
The stars weren't my own
I remember when
Sad stories of a real soul
I remember when
We used to play pretend
My future, my escape
Dream of another time or place
What shall become of me?
Only doubt
What did I see?
Nothing, no belief
I know now.
Her sorrows aren't unheard
Her tears water my soul
Gave way to a new being
Made new, now whole
Her intelligence set her back
Her doubts supported by lack
So little
But love
Such lack
But love
Why did she love?
Disgustingly sorrowful
A pitiful being
But no harp on her
Seeing is believing
Now I appreciate the gains
I will never fault her
Because when it rains
I hold her umbrella
Might let it go when she cries
Her peace, disturbed
Tears blending out of sight
She brought me here
Her light was dim
She had little to give
But she gave it all
Why? Why provide when your well runs dry?
Why? Why give when you can barely stay alive?
Why?
Maybe the tables could turn
Karma, God, Jesus, and the like
Buddha, Confucius, reverse her fortune
But there was a block
A hold
Unknown truths, stories untold
Lack of trust
Lack of care
She knew, sadly
No one was there
Her heart stayed crushed
Each day, she hoped to restored it whole
Each day she'd come home
Stories thoroughly old
Tired, old, tired, old tired
LET ME OUT
she'd scream
[ Where is her mind? ]
She'd find herself wallowing in grief
grades, grades, grades
friends, friends, friends
am i the weirdo
am i the problem
what do i do
how do i change
find a way
find a way
FIND A WAY
MAKE THE CHANGE
MAKE ME BETTER
CHANGE MY LIFE
I CANT STAY LIKE THIS FOREVER
someone save me...
locked in a box
she had the key
born trapped
What shall become of me?
I know now.
I don't stand proud.
I stand knowing.
I proudly show it.
Abundance, unfathomable
Love?
Insurmountable
The lack she felt, reversed
Wishing for a hearse
I lifted the curse
Now I sit, fully imearsed
I live in the moment
Authentically
I live for myself
Unapoligetically
I live.
I live.
I want to live.
The will never take that from me.
I want to live.
Now what become of me?
Let's see :)))
