I know I'm not alright
How can I be alright
Love has blended my heart
Time has widen my wounds
Space has darkened my mind
Tears have been my ocean of calming
Pain has been my bed of nails that I can't seem to get off of
These cuts that are carved into my arm
This blood painted onto my skin
They hold me together
Where my sanity runs wild
My insanity hold my broken pieces together
I can't explain to you how this pain that I have inhaled has made me better
I don't expect you to understand why these bright red colours are my favorite
I'm sorry that my pain hurts you
I tried to find better ways to make me happy
But now that you're gone
The old ways just seem so inviting
So I will sink into my ocean once again
I will smother my arms in the vibrant paint
I will rest my head on these nails as though they were to softest things in the world
I will let my pain overcome me because without you there is nothing holding me back
Nothing keeping me from my own little world
