To the sound of rain falling,
The sight of grandpa writing,
The smell of lilacs blooming and pancakes on Sunday morning.
Mom is panicking,
Sirens blaring,
Being pushed aside,
Confusion, fear.
Never time to be great at anything -
Only a need to be good at everything
Fear of closeness,
Fear of failure.
Sweet child, calm your mind
Turn on the light,
Close the door,
Write until there’s nothing more.
Intrusion of mind,
Everything, do everything,
Never let them see you fail,
Seclusion.
Death, destruction,
Torn apart,
Fall, fall, fall,
No understanding.
Escape, moving forward,
Make up for your past,
Be strong, don’t stop to think,
Close your heart, close your soul.
Sweet child, calm your mind,
I have you now,
I have your heart,
I’ll hold you close and make you whole,
You are home.
