the princess saves herself in this one

the princess saved herself in this one

i am caught between mourning you

&

thinking your death saved me.

-will you ever be able to forgive me?

Amanda Lovelace

a girl

unable to bring

herself to cry

because if she finally cries

then that means

it really happened.

Amanda Lovelace

so many

hours

days

months

years

of my life

were wasted

making sure

i was

hollow

i’m

terrified

down to my

very roots

that there are

parts of myself

that can

never be

filled.

-sometimes i think it would be better if someone cut the whole tree down & started anew.
