Fairy Tales Aren’t True And Happy Endings Are Overrated

My Love

I don’t want to be here
But I have nowhere to go
To run and hide away in darkness
In another persons arms

My mind is blended and cut
Scrambling ideals and rational thoughts
I want to run away forever free
And yet I want to stay

I like what I like
And I hold onto what I love
I cry for the things I don’t have
And bleed for the things I’ve lost

Self harm is a sin I avoid it
Self hatred is a right I feel it
Life itself is a gift
And everyday is forever wasted

The liquid of my eye burns
And the pain in my heart scorches
I can’t find my way out
Because you left me here blindfolded

No bread crumbs left for me to follow
I would never have waited for you
If I knew I was going to be left here
I don’t want to be alone

I don’t want to be here alone
Cold and sad, crying like a child
Helpless, unloved, hurt no longer human
I want more than this, I deserve more

I’m not a bad person
I didn’t do bad things
I just want to be loved
Is asking too much to be selfish….

I don’t want to be here
But I have nowhere to go
Dying to get out of this darkness
To be in another persons arms
