I Am Dead Inside My Sorrow

I see the fire.

I am the flames. 

I am hurting.

Within  the inside.

Next to which rests with 
the dead.

I do not linger.

Even to point one finger.

I swallowed my pain.

I am the nail in the 
cross.

I take.

I break.

For yours and heavens 
sake.

I carry my burdens.

You will never see me 
cry.

My tears are not forsale.

Not today and surely 
not tomorrow.

Never in the corner of 
the dark.

I will drown.

I will suffocate.  

My heart hangs around 
a stake.

I do not have to die.

I am dead inside my 
sorrow.
