❝ I'm going for a walk ❞
♡
Recently I've been feeling dead in my own skin,
Watching this watercolour world turn to a unmemorable shade of tin.
Recently I've been shaken apart,
When everyone's at the finish line and I'm yet to start.
Recently I miss the old me,
The one who would try as hard as can be,
The one who would look both ways before crossing the road,
Who wasn't constantly having an anxiety overload,
The one who wasn't deathly in love
The one who still counted the stars from above.
The one who wasn't putting her worth on a report card
The one who would read books in the corner of her backyard,
The one who lit candles before she went to bed,
The one who actually ate the things she was fed,
And the one who didn't cry on a swing set 5 days a week,
The one who didn't have depression that played hide and seek.— s.v // where it all went wrong
