She Writes Jan 2019
I welcome the familiarity of rock bottom
I have laid my head here many of night
Looking up from the depths feels safe
I cannot fall further
When I have already hit the bottom
Here I am safe, here I am home
She Writes Jan 2019
And even the sun is jealous
Of the stars in her eyes
She Writes Jan 2019
I slipped away from you into the darkness
Before dawn could shine a light on reason
The cycle must be broken, but how?
Your sun was always brighter than my moon
She Writes Jan 2019
The remnants of your influence
Echo down the halls of my concience
Long after I slipped away into the night
Here you are still
Whispering that I am not good enough
I cannot make on on my own
She Writes Jan 2019
Most count sheep when trying to sleep
I count lies that have been told to me
She Writes Jan 2019
Look into my soul
You’ll see walls a mile high
Unreachable and safe
Confined and alone
She Writes Dec 2018
And through the pain
I’ll find my voice
Turning this quiet violence
Into loud words

I am not my past
I am not my disorder
I am not my obsessions
I am not a victim

I am strong
I am smart
I am brave
I am free
Sometimes I need a little reminder.
