One Childs Story
April 13, 2009
Once upon a time
Is how my story begins
Sounds happy doesn’t it
But the truth is
My story isn’t happy at all
Drugs,
Sex,
Disbelief,
Friends,
Family,
Dishonest,
Tragedies,
Feelings:
Being bottled up
Eyes:
Swelling with tears
Heart:
Shattering
Brain:
Meltdown
Body:
Shut down
Forcing a smile
Crying on the inside
Bleeding on the outside
Inside a bubble where
Everything just bounces back
The memories never leave
Forgetting is impossible
And remembering is tarring me apart
As all fairytales end
Happily ever after
Happy isn’t it
But the truth is
My story isn’t happy at all
