Bare Thought
Boredom consumes me
It rips apart my entity
Until there is nothing left for me to be
Eternity is a lifelong process
With few things to caress
Hold those that are dear, close to your heart
Nothing can take them away
Anger can’t be controlled
So take your bruises and black eyes
Internally, they will forever be there
Until there is nothing left for you to bear
Sadness I know well
It is my emotions that will always dwell
No one will ever tell
I hide it from every soul
To them I have control
No, they will never know
The true me deep inside
Because of how I lied
Inside of me I’ve died
Left no tears to be cried
I wrote my letter goodbye
