Crystallize

Teardrops crystallize on my lashes as I wander into the cold of night

Walking towards or from something: unsure, I exit the light

Every step pushing me deeper into the stillness of the snow 

And every feeling pushing up, bursting out of my soul

Blinded by the pain as it swells from my eyes

Feeling so small as teardrops crystallize

If I begin to feel anything, I feel everything all at once

The stop to a yield and sting of an internal right hook punch

Drowning myself as I tread fast in waters of my mind

Unforgiving, un-forgetting of things I should've left behind 

Broken and mangled, on the ground my heart lies

Feeling so small as teardrops crystallize 

Heading back, navigating through familiarity 

The teardrops, they melt, but the pain I still see

Searching for relief but the winter disagrees

The teardrops, they melt, but the pain I still see

I breathe slow, inhaling the new and expelling the old

Visible breath fogged as it dissipates into the cold

To be free like the air, quiet and unable to be seen

A life for people carved in sorrow, a life for people like me

Alone in the woods, only echoed by my cries

Feeling so small as teardrops crystallize 

Feeling so small as teardrops crystallize

Hello Kayla...

Welcome to Cosmo! 

I hope this isn't true...

But, if it is I hope you begin to find the fun side of you...

I was a lot like you...

The road is long and hard all by yourself...

You talk about being alone in the snow...

You may think it's stupid, but sometimes when all you have is you...

Make a snowball and throw it your self...

Play in it, roll in it,  just begin to play hard...

You may get some snow in your shirt and it will give your skin the chillies, but the best way to become a good friend to yourself is hang out with yourself until you find you laughing at yourself a little more and a little more, until you become your very own best friend...

Then you don't have to try so hard anymore...

You will find yourself feeling better and you may see someone that's sad and you won't quite and your new focus will be to make them smile...

Whenever you feel that sadness coming on do something quick and smile before it can grab hold...

Recognizing is the hard part, because the anatomy of a woman is also very complicated and we go through many changes from teen to our senior citizens discounts...

Hugs...

:)
