Dark Journey

Reality cuts deep, her innocence dies
All of the wonder is now gone from her eyes
A shell is left, so empty and hollow
And no path is lit for her to follow
Through the dark alone she will stumble
Hoping each step that she won’t crumble
From all of the weight that’s on her now
This pain and fear she can’t allow
On she goes, seeking release
Hoping for the pain to cease

Disposable

Sting of rejection sharp within
A knife cutting my heart so thin
Another piece of my soul cut away
So callously tossed and left in dismay
To be disposable pains me so
A heart so easy for one to throw
To be held tight a distant dream
To be more than just what I seem
An empty vessel is all I seem to be
But my truest depths no one can see
