Written in the stars

Aals

Take the edge off

maybe someday I won’t hurt so much

maybe one day I won’t lose the game

one attempt after another

just to end it all

pop a pill

cut a vein

but in the end

somehow I wake up in the morning

swelling thoughts and smiles

doubt remains but the questions stays

“Why?”

maybe it’s meant to be

maybe I’m written in the stars along with the undying painted crowd

somewhere with Hercules or Joan of Arc

maybe that’s why I ask so many questions

maybe that's why I’ve just lost my way

I wish my confidence would stay

PTSD can’t seem to stay away

my flashbacks come and go

a black crow

my heart broken in two

maybe it’s not too broken to sew.
