Something New

Grow out your hair


To make you feel strong


Or make you feel something new


So when the kids come home 


You have something to show


The next time they see you


But at the opposing side of this register line


Are their same fears brilliantly disguised 



Why do I wait for someone to save me?


I don’t sleep, I only dream


And only of you


Or violent depictions


The salt poured into all my wounds


Don’t talk to me


I can’t feel anything 


But I hope you find what was missing from me, baby


I hope you’re fine



I screamed aloud for years


But no one heard me cry


The hidden archetype of my life


Then months passed by


I lost myself last year


But August made me lose my mind


Entwined with fear from losing your love
