Finding The Woman I'm Meant To Be

Battle Wounds, Bruises And Perseverance

I reach to pick up the pieces
Getting cut by the broken edges
I don’t know how I got here
It wasn’t supposed to be like this

You give it everything you have
And you fight until the battle’s won
But what if you’ve given all you can?
Yet the war has only just begun

I put up all these walls around me
Making barriers and building shields
I don’t want people to see my bruises
All my failures would be revealed

Love and success are all I’ve ever wanted
The reason behind all this change –
So I pick up the pieces and glue them together
With the hope of being whole again.

A Wish Your Heart Makes

With all the challenges
I’ve been through
and all the struggles
I’ve seen
no matter what I refuse to believe
A dream is just a dream.

Cease And Desist

Here I am
Thinking of you
Again

Wishing you’d have
Saved me
From him

Had you been here
In my life
He wouldn’t have

Here I am
Wishing for you
Wanting us back

This is my plea
My last cry
For help

Please show me
Say something –
Reach out

This is my
Final cry
For you

Show me somehow
Say anything –
Soon.

Just In Case 

Just in case you forgot
I’m still right here.

Missing you –
Missing us,
Whatever we were.

Feeling you
Forgetting me.

I just wish you knew,
I just want you.
And I want you –
To be happy.

Poisoned Pain

It’s not a shadow
It’s not a dream
More like a monster –
That version of me

I sip the poison
It flows through my veins
Reminding my heart
How I crave you again

So the monster takes over
And I do these things
I hurt myself all over again
It’s embarrassing

And I don’t get embarrassed
I don’t have regrets
But then pain meets poison
They become best friends

So I dialed your number
Saying everything, but nothing at all
I apologize for being a monster
It wasn’t me – it was alcohol
