Breathless.
I feel so trapped, I can barely breathe. The walls are closing in, And I have nowhere to turn.
A flicker of hope in the distance, Lights up the darkness, the prison, But it’s too faint, too far away to reach
The saltiness of my sorrow tingles on my swollen cheeks. Tears pour down my face warm and hot The pain slowly trickles out.
So alone in this vast emptiness Slowly turning crazy What thoughts are my own?
But yet even as my soul inside crumbles The pillars of support collapsing, falling down I weave a web of lies, I am a master of deception.
They can’t see my vulnerability, I won’t let them see inside. What they don’t know can’t hurt them, I won’t let them see the broken me.
