Like a moth to a flame
I fear it will always be the same
I feel my skin as it burns
I watch the world as it turns
It fades from white to black
So quickly the flames grow
Consuming me completely
I have never felt pain so deeply
Then I let myself go
Falling further and further
Down below
Inside the ground
This is where my peace is found
Disclaimer- this is not about dying. It is about letting go, and extinguishing the flame with the earth below.
Peace and Love,
Nyx
She strives for perfection
In everything she does
The image she portrays
Hides everything inside
A life she should have lived
Love she was denied
Through this rejection
She never found herself
So she will continue
Wandering here and there
Still striving for perfection
Longing for someone to care
Nyx
She exists alone again
There is no one there
To hold her hand
She seeks peace within herself
Because she has no choice
Forward she walks
Into the unknown
Somber still
Without a home
Nyx
As she walks away
The grass dies beneath her feet
The trees are blown from sight
The clouds they turn to grey
As the storm comes
She looks to the sky
As the rain falls
She closes her eyes
For just a moment she feels peace
Nyx
I feel the sadness as it starts to spread
Is there something wrong
Or is it all in my head
I do not know where I am going
All is feel is my world turning
In my chest I feel the pain
The ache that never goes away
I am lost beyond this world
Everyone goes
No one will stay
When I stop it hits me hard
Bruised and broken
Beaten and scarred
I have to shut it off
I have to leave this place
There is no solace here
I feel my heart
It begins to race
When I see that look
Upon your face
Nyx
The world it spins
Round and round I go
In a daze
I feel the pain
I will never be the same
I keep changing
As the leather gets thicker around me
It keeps me safe
I know longer long for anything
I know longer long for anyone
I am a warrior
Alone I walk this path
I know where I am going
I will not look back
Nyx
Today I question
Everything and everyone
Who am I
Who have I become
I feel so weary
As the anxiety
Brings me down
I feel so lost
I do not want to be found
I do not want to be consumed
By the pain that loneliness brings
By the fire that burns in my chest
I just want peace
I just want to rest
Nyx
I will not look behind me
I must be here today
I need to let go
Of the sorrows from yesterday
Because this is what must be done
Because this is what I do
Every day I rise
Trying to forget you
You are one of many
That I have to let go
My heart no longer aches
From the sorrow that you bring
The pain subsides
As I start to sing
This is what I must do
Walk away from you
Nyx
As I walk along the path
I listen as he speaks
Another person comes and goes
I had a few moments of peace
Before I realized once again
I haven’t found the one
I must continue to protect myself
As weary as I am
I must push myself to wake up
I must make myself stand
Nyx
As the sun sets
I feel some peace
At last
How I wish that it would stay
When the sun shines I feel the panic
My heart starts to race
These feelings I cannot control
These feelings I cannot face
What do you do
When you can no longer run
You have to look back and see
Everything you have done
Watch yourself as you fell
Into the depths of hell
I am so grateful for this moment
This moment of peace
Nyx
