Belong To Me
I’m tired
I’m depressed
I have no sense
Of happiness
My body weak
My bones are tired
I wish I could get away
If just for a little while
My health hindered
And my lungs closed
The food I put down
All arose
My sprit broke
My soul is sore
I cant stand being me
Anymore
My eyes are closed
And my breathing slowing
My mind stopping
And my dreams are dying
The darkness of nightmares
Has come to stay
I never imagined it’d
Be this way
So much hurt
And all this grief
I pray and wish
It all to leave
I want someone to care
And hold me near
And have a place
To shed my tears
Set all
My demons free
And have a self
That belongs to me.
