­it gets worse before it gets better Lyrics by Eva Snyder

­seventeen (for a little longer)

2024

I've been putting this off, which is unlike me
I’ve held on to you for half of my life
I've never loved you but I've grown to love myself alongside you
I’ve put up flood gates and sand bags only to let a chosen few through
I've uprooted my garden in hopes it would grow in winter
But you've made every season cold
I'm starving
I'm caving
I'm crumbling
The walls are pushing in, a cheap haunted house
And I'm forcing myself to excavate space for me
So I don't suffocate
So I can breathe
I’vе opened evеry door to try and cool down
But it’s only made the temperature rise
Who am I?
A quick painless question that carves a twelve year scar even deeper
In the slight of a magicians hymn that makes it feel normal
Who am I now?
Sometimes I feel stronger
Then I'm left raw and bruised
They’ll develop when I get home because my house is a dark room
A cocoon to process and heal
It gets worse before it gets better
It gets worse before it gets better
I've been putting this off, which is unlike me
But the bandaid is gone
Who am I now?
