Before
If only i could live
Live without this thoughts
This pain
This loneliness
This feeling that everything is fake
If only I could laugh without crying hours later
If only I could dance without feeling the ground beneath opening up to swallow me whole
If only I could feel free like the birds flying in the blue sky above
If only I could run and just feel the wind in my hair as it is flowing in the air
If only I could just feel the movement’s in my body and not the thoughts in my head
If only I could live like the people around me
If only I could be happy like the children playing in the sand
If only I could go back in time
To the time where I didn’t know this version of me
Long before I knew about how flowers bloom and cars run
Before I knew history and religion
Before I knew how people fight, and how people kill just for fun
Before I knew how lies could hurt and hate destroyed
Before I knew how snow was made and how many planets there are
Before I knew the world I would grow in
Before I knew the feeling of hate, loneliness, anxiety and fear
Before I knew how your eyes hurt when you are tired
Before I knew the darkness by heart
If only I could never have heard the things that is said
If only I could live
If only…
