‘If There’s Someone Out There’
The New Project. May 19.
I’ve been fighting myself for all my life,
holding up my fortress against bitter strife,
a pressure that stains my walls with a darkened colour,
and I can do nothing but watch as it all grows fuller.
if you looked at me for more than a second,
you'd notice that I'm about to start begging,
pleading for you to take the wheel,
to give myself a minute to breathe and
wipe my tears with my sleeve,
because all of this has been so hard
and I can only push myself so far.
I wish I was brave and wrote how I really felt,
painted a portrait of the way you made my heart melt,
and told you that you filled me with a feeling of the third kind,
and sung about the way you were always on my mind.
When I write, I feel at bay.
It’s a staircase that I see no end to - a once-temporary pill I swallowed to heal and reach a better horizon that was blurred for long - but now, it is an essence that has made me complete.
When my pen touches a page, I feel enchanted; a fulfilling element runs through my veins and takes me to a different, magical and powerful land.
I never want it to end, I want to write about every feeling and every moment of healing and even the seconds where I’ve felt broken and tormented. It’s all a part of the bigger picture; a page is my forever canvas and I will always hold it dear.
