I don't want, I simply know

by Dawn Ariscent   Jun 25, 2010


I'm pretty scared
And that's all there is
I'm not myself
I'm here to be molded
Molded into what
I think
I want to be

So who am I now?
I am a lonely
Broken-hearted
Abandoned
Little
Girl

How many times have I
Fallen down
And gotten right back up

I almost feel as though
As soon as I try and stand
Someone is going to push me down

My wounds are fresh
But my motives are pure

Right now, I don't want
I simply know

I don't want to make friends
They will cause me nothing but pain
And none of them will be worth it
I simply know
It's only right to
Continue to delude myself
To live the roller coaster
That is life
And buy a t-shirt when I get off
"I survived life, and died"

I don't want to be here
In a family of strangers
I simply know that
A strange roommate
Does not count as a support system

I don't want to sleep
In a bed I can't
Call my own
I simply know I need to
I need to dream and laugh and cry
In a world that isn't this one
So I can come back to this world and remember
There is some sort of hope
