counting down the seconds, the world's own restart button, clearing the slate for the next revolution around the sun.
they say there's so much to be thrown into a box of memories, a box soon one will forget.
although, there's a part of me that doesn't want to move on; i'm afraid of change, afraid of the unknown.
i guess i should face my demons, come to terms with the consequences of my fuck-ups.
it pains to know of the abuse to this shell occupied by a broken girl, both caused by myself and others.
but alas, i shall push away my demons, temporarily silencing the beasts; selling my body for the price of a penny, weak and available for the taking.
take a sip of the Devil's poison, wishing my future regrets to be forgotten;
much like i am to those around me, i'm but another faded photograph in a box of the past.
