Need You

I slowly cascade my hates
    but my anger doesn't leave

The pressure is lifted and I feel okay
    but my mind, it feels numb

When I cry I have  no tears
    only dry sobs of nothing

Cant I wait for a better time?
    no, that is my answer

They shouldn't listen to my moaning 
    or my lifeless face

Just move on and look away
    it's what they all do anyway

No. Not a light will shine within me
    now dark clouds blacken the shine
