Suppressing the Pain

Suppressing The Pain
(Mid-Swap)

From deep within the heart cries out
A life of pain there is no doubt
You try your best to comprehend
Searching for comfort from a friend

Through journals you quietly vent
Not knowing what message you sent
Tears flowing you silently write
Living through pain night after night

Through all the pain you want to shout
From deep within the heart cries out

From time to time you want to cry
While you’re trying to reason why
Wanting others to feel your pain
As the tears roll like rushing rain

Looking for a little respect
Don’t always get what you expect
Others hurting so you reach out
Through all the pain you want to shout
