Trials crashing over you like waves
your hope continues to fade
but it is the determined heart that saves
this is how we are made.
To fall, to cry, and to hurt
this is our unfortunate fate
there is not much that we can divert
and sometimes we cannot carry the weight.
Yes, we are made this way
to smile, to laugh, and to love
hoping for that better day
this is the world we are a part of.
We become so afraid to drown
but it is our fear that we must sheathe
we must not let the hurt make us frown
instead, we must learn to just breathe.

Take It All Away.
There’s a tear between each smile and a fracture on my heart
And a thousand feelings breaking me and tearing me apart
Knowing when it’s over I may lose my sanity
Embrace the mess I am and the storm inside of me
In the dark I have a chance to fight away my problems
To ignore them all away instead of trying to solve them
All I saw when I looked back was a mass of insecurity
Laying waste to who I am and ripping at the seam
Lowering my already non-existent self-esteem
And I couldn’t help admitting I’m a self-made failure
Walking a broken path as a second-hand savior
And it all adds up to nothing; me in a nutshell

sit on
your throne

What I Can't Have
I wanted wings
To wrap me gently
In such a wondrously beautiful embrace
Amongst the stars and angels
So I delicately ripped flight
From the butterflies surrounding my window
In the hopes they could fly me away.
I wanted to feel loved
To feel the doting heat
Of a lovers breath on my neck
And grasp on my heart
So I kissed the sun
And held it ever so gently
Against my breast till
It burned me away
And I could reminisce in its loving burn.
I wanted to be whole
Without flaw
Without ugly bones to trap my soul
Without a life
So desperately wanting
Everything it could never have or be
So I embraced the seas
Submerged my entirety
My being

When I get under extreme stress or when I'm in an emotional rut, I tend to flip out and pretty much forget to breathe. But I have to constantly remind myself that everything is going to be okay soon if not eventually, that everything can be overcome if you let yourself gather the strength to defeat whatever it is. So when I'm trying to calm myself down, I just breathe slowly, letting myself get back together, because I know that I can through the hardship and the hurt. And what more can we do besides continue our lives, to continue breathing?

This is beautiful! I love the fluency of this. The last stanza was my favorite- some people are too caught up in things to just relax, even when they're under stress.
