Silence and sorrow
flow through my aching veins.

Never a day passes when you're not on my mind
but everyone else seems fine.

I wear my smile
like my finest dress

It's getting worn out quickly
It's tearing at the seams

Sometimes...

Sometimes I pray to a God who hasn't listened
for much too long

I pray to him and beg forgiveness.
I beg for him to hear me.

Days like today
the darkness comes creeping in
from all corners of this room

Tired of running from this pain
Tired of pretending that I'm okay

I'm not fragile,
You can't break
what's already broken.

And losing you




Shattered me.
