my poem ab a new era of same old mistakes. feel free to leave a feedback <3

i am like a star

distant and dying

a long-healing scar

hardly ever at peace

i see past mistakes 

it's emergency. call police!


i swear i thought that i had control

a moment flew by and i screwed it all

i couldn't get rid of those violent words

they broke me. they stroke me

they cut me like swords 


u played unfair

still i was your saviour

are you ever sick of your two-faced behaviour?

u left me empty, used, confused

a storm was approaching 

u were amused


why would u play sinless?

u can’t hide reality 

can you lose your pride when it comes to morality? 

the only way out for u was confession

since you’ve never cared i chose isolation 


i tried to escape - i got out of breath

it seemed i was closer than ever to death

my mind's peaceful places are gone

skies collapse

it's motionless creature's relapse


it’s my new era of same old mistakes

why strangers shout to me, "whatever it takes" ?

mirrors exult

but i am overwhelmed 

my carefree era came to an end


i couldn’t see clearly. i was disordered 

still i had to take another step forward

soft lullaby

shortness of breath

weird. i'm one day closer to death


i gave it a shot. i played my part

i buried a feeling that tore at my heart

in silence i stood through the pain and the treason

broken and bruised

yet i know there’s a reason


i tried to keep my head above water

still felt uneasy. a failure daughter 

guess i saw dreams being taken to slaughter 

no wrong path exists

(should’ve known to be stronger)


forgive me my weakness

i’ve stumbled. i’ve bled

forgive all the chaos that spins in my head

expect me to change, let the past fall away

i'll shatter the chains that have led me astray


i strive to fathom the nature of pain

a question that circles and echos in vain

this season has shattered me

left me undone

but still i could find a reason to run


innocent wind lures me into the wild

a place from my dreams

where i slowly bleed out 

i wanna be gone to the most remote forest

that's where for sure i will be my calmest
