Just working through life and writing it out
Wolf #2
And just like that,
I decided to feed my wolf
And she settled down into a corner somewhere
And she slept a deep sleep.
I decided to feed my wolf
And she settled down into a corner somewhere
And she slept a deep sleep.

Mirror Mirror
I hate the person you're becoming," snapped my mother.
And I crumbled,
inevitably,
into smaller pieces as the tears came.
That always confused me,
how she could say such things.
But now I cry,
not because what she said still hurts me,
but because I finally see how much she still hates herself.

Attack
Words swarm and burrow into my mind, buzzing around as though my head is their hive
I'm screaming inside but the buzzing is so loud I can hardly think
My thoughts are placed on repeat and the broken record of their words hurts more each time
They begin to echo throughout my body, speeding up the beat in my chest and bottling up in my throat
As my body can't take any more my words begin to choke me
My eyes plea with my mind as tears water my cheeks
I bargain with myself to make it stop
Make it stop.
Make it stop.
It's all your fault.
Even after...

Make it stop.
Make it stop.
It's all your fault.

She Dare
She was one with many fears, numerous worries, and endless doubts.
But she found her bravery after she wiped away her tears.
You see, everyone had only seen what she had let them.
Now, she showed everyone what had made her cry.
They twisted away, begging her to stop.
But she begged them, "dare me to go on".

Beautiful Tragedies
Riverside trees-
Imagining the feeling a leaf has as she falls from her branches,
I find myself falling.
Colors like a golden fire,
The most beautiful in life I have ever been.
But in that moment,
I hit the ground.
Lonely & lost.
