Loosing Yourself


What becomes of your life and what becomes of yourself;

to run away from it all that you could not have felt. How you could live free and turn back the darkness you depict;

facing fear and reality without loosing yourself to it. Going against everything you stand before by being insecure in trust; 

never knowing your one last breath to show could be enough. 
Could something so real be blinding you it makes it hard to escape; 
risking life for love and love in death before its to late. Dreams that begin small in fear with broken hearts untold; 
driving you with a questionable insanity that you seize to control. 
Asking yourself is the world in your eyes all worth fighting for;
lost inside to find the answer more and more. 
Bravery of your Heart and fear in your mind become something vulnerable; 
moments you can't forget it's impossible to be durable. 
Falling off the world until you become something other than you; 
believing in other people's lie that it becomes your true. 
Always looking for a way out when things got hard as if happiness is just luck; 
hoping alone nights will soon find a way to end all the suffering that leaves to give up.
