Game Against My Heart

I am not trying to win this game

this battle inside my heart

All I am doing

is trying to survive

because I am drowning on a sea

in which I can’t swim

I am jumping off a cliff

without knowing how to fly

and all Im trying

is to make sense of who I am

of this new lost identity

because I can’t recognize myself

wondering what happened to her,

the girl

before ever getting hurt

the one that didn’t numb her pain

with wine

the one that actually had

a life

the one that wasn’t scared

to fight for herself

the one that saw the sunlight

and drove everywhere

the one that could never hurt

those she cared for

The girl that I lost

the girl that I loved.

- Adriana Carolina Nava Sosa
