No Room

No room to breathe No room to feel No room to think No one to care My tears are all I have right now My pain is all I see No one understands anything about The sadness that is in me I’m trying to find a path To find my space to be free I’m looking for wisdom Wisdom to get the hope I seek I’m sitting in an empty room Barred from an emotional heartbeat The emptiness is like a blanket Comforting, enclosing, and suffocating anything in me.   My strength and will are gone No permission for hope, love, or feeling The space, the emptiness that surrounds Has now taken over, becoming me No room to breathe No room to feel No room to think And no one to care My heart is broken. 09/07 A.B.
