I sat there and cried

I sat there and cried.

I cried when I lost it all...

The moment all my things stopped being my things.

I sat there and cried.

When words that never came out of my mouth where made into a situation that wasn't even about me...

I sat there and cried.

When people that I loved, that I held close to my heart burned a huge hole across my chest.

I sat there and cried.

When I let my peace be rattled by the ugliness of an empty world full of diamonds and a bed full of gold, to the point that I had to question my morals.

I sat there and cried.

I did I cried, I cried for days, of how I lost my whole life, of how I am blamed for walking away, yet no one points out the poison that was spread... and how I was suffocating with the decisions of the ones around me...

I sat there and cried as I closed the door, but I took a step back and reevaluated the sun, & let its rays dry my tears. Let the wind guide my path that took me to the ocean. And as I stood in front of the waves I yelled "I'm free, I'm free, & I matter"
