Glass Garden

Sometimes I don't mind being alone

At times I wish I was

Isolated in my own glass garden

Only imagining the most beautiful things

As if I was on a swing listening to a gental beat

One my heart trys to follow but never repeats

Sometimes I don't wanna be alone

At times I wish I wasn't

Isolated in my mind running with my eyes closed

Music blasting in my ears

Imagining scenes and events reminding me of my child like soul

My soul that can only feel my imagination through my mind

As my heart wishes it can feel it but it can only feel what I live at this time

I escaped with music and simply closed my eyes

Just to open them again and to suddenly cry

Why I cry I never know why 

My mind never tells me

It's a secret thats locked inside

Maybe its to keep me sane but instead it hurts me 

As if we are not one but apart

Not connected to each other

At times I feel not alone like I am really there Sometimes I vanish 

Hidden in my glass garden

Locked behind the glass walls that is easy to crack but not easy to make fall

All you can see is the flowers that have grown over my body 

So you can never see me the me I tend to hide

As I lye between death and life

In and the outside

My flowers that I leave behind keep me alive

Never to be alone but to spread more of who I am 

Even when it snows my garden always grows

I reach for the sun one I once hated

I reach for life one I once rejected

I reach for air one I once ignored

All I have taken for granted

I reach because I see how much they matter way more then before

All of this is to make my garden grow 

So the flowers won't just cover my body 

But it will become me as a whole

True Beauty 

Bright Life

Fresh Air

Stays Alive

Until Wilted 🥀

(Truly dead from the inside out) 

And that I am even grateful for

Because I have lived a beautiful life even with dark holes that occur through time
