Won 3rd place in the book contest by: Bellatrix_0_0 go check her/his/their contest out!
The story doesn't start at the beginning
It begins when things get worse
A girl running from her feelings
Shadows asking why she was hurt
One chain reaction starts with a lone wolf
Feels like he's escaping time
Trying to find that soulmate of his
Lying in cold blood and crime
Run away from that tall grass
Drawing you down by your feet
Those Phantoms creep closer
They know what expectations to meet
I carry my heart on my sleeve for all to see
Rehearsing the things to say
Spirits fall out of the forest crying
As if they have a name
I hide secrets under the cupboard
And bottles of tears in my eyes
You never know when you need them
I don't want to be surprised
I keep bubbles in my pockets
So they'll never escape into ruins air
But I know they will pop someday
And for that day I am scared
The end is just the beginning
The spark of another day
I can't wait for what life brings you
Based on what I do or say
