Emptyness
In a world with so many twists and turns,
My stomach feels as if it will twist and burn.
Changes through the open glass,
The frightening images of my past.
I wish i could end it all,
Instead i curl into a ball.
Wishing i could be free to dance,
In the reflection that you chance.
But instead i wait for you to take me home,
Lesson learnt, message sewn.
