My fear feels like this:
cold fingers wrenching my wrists behind my back,
thick, black ink coating my lungs,
poison gas seeping into my ears, whispering:
"Everything would be better if you weren't here."
It had dark blue eyes like the night sky
Who would of thought it would cry
It wonder down the street as it beg for help
Darkness followed it through the air
One day hoping it sees the light
In a world where words are the strongest weaponry,
Where syllables can tumble down with the power of a tsunami,
Drowning is often easier than it should be.
Each word a piercing bullet with a fatal shot,
It's an empty promise.
A temporary bliss.
But blissful nonetheless
Scaring my worries away
Even if just for a few moments.
But the thought to let go is terrifying
What do you see yourself in five years?
That’s the question I fear,
I begin to think and think
About so many things
About college, about life
Dawn awakens new relief
Twilight awakens new pain
In between these times
Life is lived
Life is lost
When summer ends
Winter begins
The sun brightens your eyes
And lifts your heart
