What we once knew.

I used to speak with kind and gentle words.

So sweet and tender to the ear.

For anyone who wanted to hear.

But then my world came down.

Crashing and burning before your eyes.

You stood in awe as the flames tormented my body.

Leaving me lifeless and dark.

My heart that once flowed with love was replaced with cold hatred for the world.

No longer were there words of hope and love.

Instead word of hate, slander, death, suicide and misery echoed from the darkest depths of my soul.

Waiting for someone to hear my wrath, looking for someone's life to destroy.

Wanting everyone to be as miserable as i am.

Ripping apart any strength this humanity had left in me.

Speaking words so dark storms form as i speak to unleash the demons of Hell.

To forsake this Earth and remind people that there is no such thing as a God.

No one is there to save you, and all you have left is the words you once heard flow from my mouth.

The same mouth that raised you up and tore you down to my level.

The end of the happiness and hope.

The rebirth of darkness.

Welcome home.

life lessons and letting go.

“Growing up is never easy. You hold on to things that were. You wonder what's to come. But that night, I think we knew it was time to let go of what had been, and look ahead to what would be. Other days. New days. Days to come. The thing is, we didn't have to hate each other for getting older. We just had to forgive ourselves... for growing up.”
