Idk

My eyes are full
My hands are scarred 
My face is blank 
My mind aches 
My back burns

How long until the dam breaks? 
How long can i keep holding on?
How long will i keep faking? 
How long could i keep thinking?
How long until i relax?  


Will it pour out ? 
Will my grip give out? 
Will i be able to smile?
Will it stay with me? 
Will it the it extinguish?

Welcome to Poetry Soup. I welcome you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
