I''m scared of my emotions More turbulent than a stormy ocean Will there be no end to this eternal commotion? Will I stabilize or stay in downwards motion? There''s a battle between logic and love; trailed by emotions of self-hate Yet I pull myself through another day, unwilling to escape Biting my tongue while hoping not to be late Ripping at my nails while contemplating this dark fate I feel so alone; surrounded by friends As another misfortune unfolds on which I''m forced to contend My strength is almost gone which allows me to pretend How will I survive until my bitter end? I tear what little is left of me apart Suffering atrophy of the heart Another hope arises; then I''m forced to depart My dreams were a concoction; faulty from the start Alone once again tears fill my eyes I shut them off because this is no surprise All hope stripped away by a dark force in disguise I''m beginning to wonder if I''ll come to my demise The sun so bright can''t even penetrate my skin This wretched depression refuses to let light in I''m frail, broken, and defeated deep within I''ve tried and struggled and my emotions are spread thin... |
