Once upon a time there was joy and laughter
The sorrow and heartbreak were foreign to my young naïve heart
I was in my own little bubble, unaware of the storm brewing outside
The sky turned into beautiful shades of dark hues foreshadowing my downfall
The storm that came was merciless, filled with a need to bring me to my knees at any cost
Everything was too much that I became numb
I tried to scream for help, but I ended drowning in my own tears
The loss and grief overpowered me, and I could not contain myself
The hate in my heart was so great that it slowly started seeping out of me
And out onto my life it went
It trickled from my soul down to my aching heart
It dripped from my tear stained cheeks to my chapped lips
Now my spirit oozes out pain and hurt wherever I go
It comes and goes, sometimes the tide is low, other times it's high
The pain that comes is intense and I can hardly breathe
It's a wave that I have to ride out in order to survive
There's a tsunami inside of me waiting to destroy any small shred of peace and hope
It is ready to take out anything in it's path to redemption
It leaves me hopeless, ready to give up
The repulsion I feel for who've I've become outweighs any feeling of love found inside of me
I'm out in the middle of the sea crying S.O.S
Hoping someone can see the young girl drowning in the shark infested waters
No one came.
I'm left all alone trying to find my way ashore
I was beached on a lonely island and now?
Well now I'm building a boat to finally go home
