I have been waiting for this moment
for my mom to tell him it's over
for them to go their separate ways.
Yes, I have been waiting for the day
when she would get tired of fighting,
tired of waiting too long to see if he would change
tired of waiting for a reason to stay.
I have been ready for a long time
I have had a bag packed underneath my bed for a long time.
I am ready.
Or, at least I thought.
I have seen it coming,
it isn't anything new.
It didn't scare me.
Until now, at least.
And thinking about leaving my home
being uprooted again
and starting all over,
I want to cry.
It's not that I am going to miss my stepfather
I'm just going to miss my home.
The weird thing is,
the crazy-out-of-my-mind thing is,
I'm not as happy as I thought i'd be.

The Frozen Burn of a Broken Heart
Out of childish fears
And knowing you'd disappear
I knew not to touch or feel
For every time I do
I retreat pale and blue
From the icy burns within my heart
After being stabbed and ripped apart
Trying not to feel a thing
And knowing I'd be broken again
But I still try to hope
Tying crimson ribbons into rope
But the rope's become a noose
And there's no way to make it loose
Maybe I should give my wings a try
Find a building and try to fly
After all I'm not that great
I just found you much too late
Now it's only me and my shattered mind
Left to sit and replay memories on rewind
Looking for the tiniest thread to grasp
Forever
Literature
Burn The Past
Hold my hand and lead me through this,
Hold my heart and save me from the pain,
Hold my lungs and keep me from the toxicity,
Grab my bags and take me to that old street,
Grab all the candles and keep them lit all night,
Grab all the cd's and put them on repeat,
Grab some drinks and lets make a toast,
Grab that lighter and burn that past away.

five people who mean a lot
a: thanks for teaching me how to laughsometimes it is nice to get lost in rolling laughter and hysterical giggles. around you i'm unconscious of worldly things as our jubilance brings me to greater heights and it becomes easier, and also desirable, to live in our moments.
c: your passion can ignite my sometimes dry-stick souland you know better than most that i'm not the kind that sits around the bonfire, but with you i'm reminded that there's more to life than the to-do list and i can relegate it to kindling as we roast marshmallows on its remains.
a: you've always had my back, my darling, and it can't be easy. i'm fairly heavy
