I hesitate.
Replaying your comment in my head.
Say something.
Say anything.
Speak up.
Speak OUT.
But enough though I want to,
I don't say anything.
I don't.
You speak words at me,
but words mean little.
You tell me things I don't want to hear,
things that break me down.
You tell me things I only dreamed of hearing,
The hidden name behind this faceThe memories that time cannot erase.Things no one wants to know,Are things I whisper, quiet and low.Things that may not seem much-A gentle hand, her soothing touch.
Come,
Sit down and view my world
Let me take you in
They say my name
As if it is I that should be ashamed.
And yet, I win another battle
Days,
Weeks,
Months,
They pass.
And I wait.
I wait on you.
I wait on a FaceTime,
A call,
Some word.
But you don't call.
You don't FaceTime,
You send no word.
The pain of my unspoken mind
The bitterness of my unspoken truth
The chains of my exasperating fears
The loss of my god forsaken youth
My heart lies beneath my honest intentions
People are trying to be the next big thing,
trying to out do the each other like we are in a race,
conforming to what we think the world wants,
I know you know my struggles; I know you my pain
So there's no need explain why I'm emotionally drained
I'm feeling deranged; living in shame; Going insane, losing my brain
Is Fear the feeling that you get when you can’t stand on your own two feet when challenges comes your way?
Is Fear darkness that surround your world and make your eyes can’t see the light?
I live in a dream
My own reality
I live in a meadow
Where I find myself
I live on a balcony
My own aerial view
I live in tomorrow
My own today
