A new weird poem by Cassidy Colbert (insomniac)
Once upon a time I was whole, then you came along and stole. Bit by bit I've disappeared, not recognizing who's in the mirror. Now that I'm coming back, you've decide to go into full attack. The pain you cause is so intense, that I can't imagine my life ever making sense. Everything that is supposed to help, never stands a chance against the cards you've dealt. You've taken everything that means the world to me, and left me begging on my hands and knees. I know that one day my life will move on, but it's scary to know that you will never truly be gone. Lurking behind every door, waiting to make me poor once more. When you see me smile so bright, you shut me off just like a light. My bodies no longer mine, it now belongs in your shrine. This war has been going on for years, and there have been too many tears. I should be celebrating the land of the free, instead I'm stuck here with you controlling me.
The army inside no longer wants to hide. They're ready to fight, so hold on tight.
My body has been turned inside out, as I'd really like for you to get out.
There's nothing left for you you to have, so you should start packing your bags.
