People

People can’t see the life that she’s faking
People can’t see her spirit which is breaking
People can’t see the tears she hasn’t cried
People can’t see her soul which has died

The Remains

August 14th, 2024

I am who I am
Because they made me this way
How many times
Did I fail to break
Fractured and bruised
They still call me broken
When I tell my story
They call me outspoken
I pick up the pieces
I grow from the pain
I’ve built up the walls
Now they think I’m insane
Protected from the past 
It’s not a bad thing
Because I got my power back
From those who left me with nothing

Haunted

July 14th, 2024

So many dreams recently
I wish to forget
I’m living a nightmare
In a life of regrets
After my nap yesterday
I’m using a night light again
Held down in my bed
The bad dreams don’t end
Then I woke up in bed
But I was still asleep
A haunted apartment
With things that creep
Pinching my arm
Yelling at myself to wake
And even while resting
I can’t catch a break
