Commotion

Commotion

Emotions cause commotion

feelings deeper than the ocean

i’m choking and hoping and praying

and I’m just saying

that I hope I can survive

cause I really love life

but I’ve got a knife

stuck in my back, attack, attack

I put it there myself & I can’t rip it out

my throat is swollen, I can’t shout

it’s hard to breathe, I can’t scream

I can’t dream, I can’t do anything

I’m paralyzed in the heart

And I’m paralyzed in the mind

Sometimes I just wish I could leave this all behind

Sounds like a confused, painful situation...There is light at the end of the tunnel just focus on that light....Very emotive and expressive write that you have penned in this one...Keep the creative pen flowing...Sara
