Begins with a frown,that ends in a smile.
And end's with a choice ,that i choose to amend.
And end's with a choice ,that i choose to amend.
Light as a feather. I spread my wings to fly.
Trying to loose myself . But if i do.
I know i will loose it all.
I look nothing like what i feel.
I miss me. The old me. The happy and free me.
I miss the real me before the black.
Before me. when im more than ok me.
They ask me are you okay? But what they really mean is are you over it yet!
What they dont know is i am a victim of my thoughts and they are louder than my will power.
I am trapped in negativity.
Every thought is a battle every breath is a curse . I am loosing this battle and i am ok with it.
So i tell myself "Just this once" and i am back to where i was 1 gram ago.
Light as a feather again.
Begins with a frown that ends in a smile.
This time i choose to fly.
Outside myself, I feel free . I feel happy .
I m happy. It feels like a sin to be this happy.
How can something this wrong make me feel alive again.
I still hear the thoughts. They never rest.
For now my urge to live is stronger than the urge to die.
One day i will feel this alive without my poison for i know .
If i dont control it .it will lead me straight to an early grave.
If i dont control it .it will lead me straight to an early grave.
Where they will cry saying,"it wasnt her time yet."
