My Heart Cries
~My Heart Cries~
Darkness welcomes me
So I fall into its
liquid ebony night
Drowning in its
black solar waves
not knowing
my surroundings
The unknown is quiet
with it's unspoken words
Holding a calmness that's
terrifying in a beautiful way
Only adding to secrets
hid behind my smile
Lost with no clue
where to begin,
leaves me exhausted
from trying to stay strong
Just trying to keep myself
whole while others try to rip
me apart
Nothing hurts more, the pain
needs not be underneath
You see I am made
of flaws and stitches,
which grow into more
each day
and when my lips
can't express
these feelings....
breaking,
my heart cries for me
