Pain
Too long this pain has been stored,
I'm trying to keep it in but, its not working no doubt..
Its tearing my insides, now breaking through the skin.
Trying to hide my face, locked up this burden within.
They can't see me, how would they react, how bad could it be.
I berry my face, into my hands, wishing it would go away.
I'm crying tears, from memories that has never replayed.
So long it was stored, in such a dark place....
The agony, and pain is rising within me now.
There’s nowhere to go, no one to run to.
I just want to scream, its coming out.
I'm fading, i don’t want your help, please just let me be.
These memories, I’ve been seeming, just came out with all the screaming.
You look at me now, I’m the open book your reading.
Nothing to hide, its all been set free.....
