I

Honestly, it's nothing new
I've changed and grown
I'm not the charismatic girl I once knew

My heart aches and my skin stings
I'm changing, becoming new
My blood and tears
They mix to become a witch's brew

I sometimes wonder
What if that hadn't happened?
If that snowy night went the way it was supposed to...
If that person hadn't left my world so soon

It's an inevitable fate
The one that you gave me
To fall from the top
And settle at the bottom

I'm screaming and crying
At evern the smallest movement
My muscles tear
And my bones break

I'm constantly trying to make things new
But my slow beating heart
Won't let them come through

I'm laughing and smiling
In moments of hurt
Pretending those days never occured

The wind whips against my face
And the cold freezes my tears
The rain drenches my soul
And the screams echo in my ears

I'm wishing and praying
For a brand new dawn
One where I'm happier
And nothing goes wrong

Alas, I know it shan't happen
For these things are true
The world is a game
And not all games are for you

I'm hoping
Somewhere
Someday
That I shall see you again

Without scars on my arms
Or tears being shed

I'm waiting
Always
And forever

For the sun to rise again
To escape the inevitable
