Untitled #1


It's not always rainbows, unicorns and castles.
Sometimes I feel like I'm dying.
I cry and slowly drown my self emotionally with sadness.
The fairy tale life doesn't exist and isn't for me.
But can I set myself free.
Spikes and splinters,
I draw myself in and wither.
I'm too afraid of pain awaiting around every corner.
Haunted by nightmares of what was hidden,
How will I ever heal, even after all the riddles were given.
But when the fire was fought with fire,
Something sprouted from its roots.
