Readjust expectations
to allow for steam
you can’t overlook.
Count and calculate
for a little longer.
Will it be worth it?
26:33
Bite into
the hard moment,
a shock to discover,
but how will you react?
Are you going
to let it change you?
26:32
View my scars
that ended a dream
but began another.
Can you look at them,
unflinching,
and believe
I am beautiful?
26:31
The choice
has arrived
to give up
your happiness
and help the many.
Will they wait for you?
Will you
remember them?
26:30
Picture my answer
to unspoken words,
ones that beat
with a steady constant,
announcing your insecurities
but revealing
your strength.
Beat beat,
beat beat.
26:29
Imagine a moment
we never reached,
a touch
never felt
except with
desperate longing,
hard enough
for growing frustration
to cloud the love
that originally
caused it.
26:28
Protect their hope
by hiding your own,
disgusting desires
and longing
with rejection.
Can you keep up
the facade?
26:27
Witness my scars
and see the beautiful,
the goodness
and the constant
attempts of better.
Does it inspire you too?
26:26
Seeker of redemption
to taste the freedom
away from guilt,
away from self-hatred,
will you realise then
the friendships around you
are real?
26:25
See my broken
and understand
how strong I’ve been
to live through this
and find a real
happiness
I didn’t find when
whole.
