The Hurt Within
I feel so broken
such thoughtless words
such angry words spoken
To suffer everyday
in silence
to appease
the person to please
anger at bay
Everyday
a little harder to take
yet to endure
days on end
your mistake
To write
your only release
your only escape
you only want peace
your plight
The heart inside
dying a little
beaten
the hurt you hide
you just died
Always one way
compromises
never exist
always another day
such things wished
There must be an end
sometime
for eagles fly
will my heart mend?
or will it wither and die?
I feel so broken
such thoughtless words
such angry words spoken
To write
open the heart
the spirits flown
released
my plight
To all out there
my soul to abre
my plight
for I live
in the mind
like a bird of the air
