locked out all these dreams
wish you could see with my eyes
realise your place in this
feel the weight of your mind

bent out of shape but never broken
fixing your soul was never the issue
licking your wounds until
the pus pours into the tissue

before you forget
don't try to remember
all that you've been
just come out and play
but don't forget
everything burns you
if you stay too dry inside
let the flames lick outside

i suppose you've grown to like the taste
wish you'd grow outside your mould
you're on the edge of yourself again
twisting the knife into your guts

cast out your shame
embrace the pain
let vulnerablility
shape your ability

before you forget

vulnerable abilities
