“Deep Abyss”

Finally looking up
After looking down on herself for so long
Never accepting her wrongs
Stuck in her abyss of trauma
Anchored, holding on
Didn’t want attention
Never wanted fame
Just to tread in her head in Lonelyville
Wondering why no one wants to stay here
They could see her silver lining
She just seen the storm
Embracing the rain
Ignoring the fact
It won’t be this way forever
But now she’s soaked in drama
Beat down by trauma
Radiating her blackness onto everything she touches
Deep down all she really needs is love
Love from self and no one else
Accept her worst
That’s when she becomes her best
Look to the light and ignore the rest
Strip her soul of regrets
Strip her mind of shoulda coulda woulda’s
Strip her spirit of darkness
Gracefully rise into her light
Never turning back to sulk in the night
