Break apart

“What life brings together,
People can break apart,
And all that we gather
Gets brushed to the past.

Longing for what we could have been,
I waste my time wandering;
Always a lost soul on its lonesome way
To find a place I wouldn’t have to say
“I’m so sorry for existing”.

Days turn to night and the clock keeps ticking,
No one in sight for miles so I keep on breathing;
Sometimes it is better to be alone whilst living
Through the biggest breakthroughs I kept on wishing.”

Breakthrough

“At times, my footsteps get steadier
And I regain some of the balance I lost
When life’s struggles were heavier
To pull through, no matter the cost.

After all the many bridges I’ve crossed,
I found the strength in me to burn a few,
Releasing all that I knew,
Reducing to ashes all my dreams of you.

Now, I paint over the blue
With so many colours, my town looks new;
Who would believe I would someday run into
Such a beautiful breakthrough?”
