Won't be able to post daily due to bad WiFi connection, but I'll try to keep up on my end and post as often as I can.
Day 1
The stars are beautiful tonight.
They tell me this night won’t last, Dawn approaches, the sun will return- And I am glad for that.
This darkness laps against my skin- suffocating Presses from all sides- crushing Seeps through my lungs- drowning And I know I cannot last.
But the day is coming soon, With troubles of its own. For now, I am grateful. The cold air reminds me I am alive. Each strained breath echoes with promise Of a life worth fighting for. And the stars are so beautiful tonight.
dancing on the edge of the world the sky is splintering tonight, all the shards raining down on me spiraling into Infinity
there’s a hole in the Sun too far from reach endless agony echoing deep
inside there’s a light, and the earth is dying wretchedly they poke and prod scream and twirl lines and patterns and fireflies why won’t they let it sink peacefully?
they pull, they call they shriek into eternity leave me now in this endless dance of ........ beautiful ........................insanity
broken god I’m so tired of this i just want to breathe again is there an end to this mess? you hurt me, i’ll hate you back is this how you want it? well too bad, you’ve stripped me down i’ve got nothing left use me, beat me but dont expect to break me im already broken, but not the way you think tear me, rip me but dont expect to stop me im already gone here’s my final goodbye- i forgive you. i’ll no longer be a slave to this hate.
It’s been so long since you’ve gone, And I think I know where you are- Lost between echoes of here and yesterday. My heart asks me why I haven’t gone to you- I never could step among shadows so gracefully.
I was wondering if you’d seen the rhythm of my heart- It seems to have wandered far away from here. Perhaps it’s returned to you, though I cannot.
I asked the moon if she’d seen you, But she only pointed to the stars. I knew you weren’t among them- You’d have burned a hole through the sky.
You were once the sun of my life- Now I can only hope to be a star, Lighting the way home for you, Leading you back to me.
Your breath is the shadow that holds my soul to my bones silence fills the gaps in my vertebrae like cracks in the sidewalk inhale and ....................exhale..............and dont ever stop, because how could concrete ever fill the place of shadows?
i know the sun is bright tonight and the whispers of the wind scream far too loud and everywhere you look, reflections of starlight mock you screaming and burning and twisting and moaning and ohgodithurts i know, i know, but sweet, how can you live if you’re too afraid to breathe?
it's all we ever wanted, you and i, to live, to breathe, to have just one chance- and here we are- so, little one, please breathe for me.
My Star I’m so afraid for you Maybe I’m just a fool You burn so bright up there But every star has to die. When you fall And there’s no place left to call home I’ll be here, waiting for you I’ll pick you up and dust you off Hold you tight, wipe your tears But I know, I know This light of yours can’t stay hidden You were born to shine So run off to the stage Go and reach for the sky And know that I’ll be waiting. I’ll always be your home.
Look at you, shining bright Give a twirl, flash a smile Be all that I never could Cry for me, laugh for me Never stop living Never quit loving My little star, Never give up shining
We could dance among the stars Light up sky like a million dreams When the sky falls down and the sun burns out You and I will be treading meteors like A carpet of rose petals, just you and me You shine so bright, you light up my world Come dance with me, love Look at you, with fire in your eyes and stardust in your hair You weren’t made for this hell Leave it all behind- the hurt, the tears, the scars Come dance with me The universe is waiting for us Just step beyond your fears Let me chase your shadows away Let me show you galaxies We’ll dance where angels trod Laugh in the face of eternity If only for a single moment, you and I could be Invincible Infinite Impossible We’ll beat the odds Break the limits Bend the rules Stop fighting the demons around you Just take my hand and let me pull you through
What a pretty smile. If you saw the pile of broken dreams collecting under my bed The dust that’s settled over fondest memories The cracked bits of my heart strewn across the floor, And the tears that carve riverbeds in my skin, Would you recognize me?
What a sweet face. If you saw the cracks across my shoulders, And the sparks of pain that hide inside my eyes, Or the hands of fear wrapped snug around my neck, The snakes that twist inside my gut, Would you still know me?
What a nice girl. If you saw the black bruises of hate that decorate my skull The demons that claw me to pieces The weight of fear that cracks my bones and grinds them to dust The shadows that scream my name when you whisper in my ear Could you still love me?
Could you ever trace the scars of my heart and hold me close, Or breathe love to my soul when I’m helpless on the floor? What if I break down in your arms, and the cracks begin to show- Could you catch my tears and build me up again?
Darling, where'd you get those scars? Those are the cracks from when I was treated roughly. Don't you see the warning in my eyes, That reads, "Handle with care"?
Sweetheart, what are these cuts? That's where the demons inside tried to get out. I know how they feel, just wanting to be free, But breathing comes with a cost. Not everyone can afford it.
Sugar, why are you crying? Look me in the eye, see the sparks of fire there. Don't you know that fire burns? It looks pretty, but it eats you alive.
Baby girl, why aren't you eating? The demons get stronger every day. If I can starve them to death, maybe I'll be free. I'm a fighter- I won't give up 'til this battle's won.
Honey, why are you so pale? My heart is starting to breaking apart, Darkness showing through the cracks. Who knew sunlight could be swallowed in shadow?
Katie, why'd you have to go? Nothing lasts forever. The demons finally won. I had to destroy them to save you.
Colorblind We weren’t meant to step outside the lines Spinning so fast, you learn or you die There’s no second chances here Cross your heart, close your eyes We weren’t meant to see Skies split apart, stars burn down What a terrible tragedy Look away, look away Don’t be caught with your heart open When the arrows fly and the earth screams When you look at me, what do you see? I’m starting to think we’ve all gone colorblind.
