How I Am Feeling
My feet do not feel steady under me
I feel as if at any moment I could topple over,
My mind is unable to keep a single thought captive
I want to cry, but I forbid it
Being strong is something I muster from deep inside
Something that often doesn't resemble myself at all
I want to believe, I want to believe I can trust
I want to believe I can be
Questions go unanswered in my mind
All the while I ask them on replay
Heartbreak is something that keeps me up at night
Something I want to run from
But alas you cannot run from such a thing
Being busy helps me push down my feelings
Being busy keeps my min misplaced
Drinking helps me forget
