One day at a time,
But some where inside,
I'm counting up and down,
Reliving all the lies,
Dreaming whats real,
Someday I'll feel

my bodies broken,
I'm trying to recall,
All the thoughts unspoken,
Sifting through memories,
Maintaining my fall,
Dreaming hoping,
There's someone for me,

Stepping over the carnage left from their words,
Balancing on the beam of expectations,
Dodging their judging stares,
But life comes with a price,

I'm reaching high,
Rethinking what I decide,
Gripping the moments,
I'll attempt some pride,
The oxygen is luminous,
Getting breathing,
Despite all the pain,

My growing soul,
Is scared and hurting,
I'm trying to hide,
All their stories,
So I do try,
Maturity is security,
In our fictional reality.
