Help

My ears fill with the rain- that are my tears. Crying into the night, searching in desperate need for light. Looking cluelessly into others' eyes for help, because I cannot begin to know how to help myself. The words bite my tongue, rotting my teeth... yet I can't even begin to speak.

Brittany, hope you are doing well. I love the honesty in what you have written and yet I trust it is not autobiographical...You have a lovely talent for 'telling it like it is...' Be well,my friend.
