February 27th, 2013:
Before the relentless truth sinks in,
I breathe in without the thought that it's all reality.
Between my heart and my thoughts, is it just a dream?
No, it wasn't.
Because beneath my skin, I felt the fear.
Below my feet, they were there-- screaming and reaching,
Trying to take what was left of me.
But I kept walking along the dark and lonely road to stay strong.
And among the golden sea, I held my weight down.
As I looked behind me, I saw them.
The nightmares and haunting memories were back again.
But above all the pain and misery, I smiled softly.
I knew I was going to be in a better place.
Knowing that, I laid my broken life down,
Falling into a quiet sleep, hoping to never wake up.

This was kinda shitty, sorry. But I was in sixth grade when I wrote this, I was eleven xD I made a few changes to freshen it up, so I hope you liked it?
Feedback is most appreciated!
