Today I feel broken
As I push myself to do
What needs to be done
Once again relying on no one
Every turn leads to a wall
Before the foundation gives
Before I fall
I see the water below
It lies beneath as the ground gives way
I am treading water today
Nyx
Things are changing
Once again
I found an end
As a new beginning starts
A new path has cleared
With all the things I have fought
And everything I have feared
I make myself walk forward
Because it is what I do
I adapt because I can
This is who I am
Nyx
And another walks away
Like so many have before
That is just what they do
Before I feel the knife slam through
The loneliness and the pain
It always feels the same
Who have I become
I exist and yet
I am no one
I walk this world alone
My heart a broken stone
The cracks they chip away
A little more each day
This is the way it must be
Until there is nothing left of me
Nyx
Everyday I fight
I put one foot in front of the other
Some days I fall
Others I keep walking
I try not to think
About what has happened before
When I think about my past
I open a door
Within it is this person
So lonely and so still
She sits there in silence
Broken with no will
This is something I strive not to be
This image that is broken in front of me
There is more to life than this
There is more to live for
There is more to see
I just have to once again remind myself
All I have to do
Is believe in me
Nyx
I thought I was lost before
That was before I opened the door
There is no foundation
There is no ground
I have been looking
But I have not found
That hand to catch me
As I free float in the air
All I want is someone to love me
All I need is someone to care
Nyx
I feel the ice
Pressed against my skin
I feel the air compress
As my chest caves in
I hear myself
As I gasp for air
There is no one there
Nyx
