"Speak the truth, even if your voice shakes"

"She was left prying open her skin to make sure her heart still worked."


Like a storm, you blew right past
Your winds made me fly through the air
I knew our time wouldn't last
I knew that you wouldn't always be there

The rain filled me up and made me overflow
The lightning struck me and burnt me to death
The thunder boomed with a voice so low
Sounding as though it was a single breath

You blocked out the light, my only sun
You ripped up my beach and city
Then, like that, the storm was done
And things didn't look pretty

Although, there is a certain beauty in the desperation
Of a life that's in destruction
