The Drama That Silently Unfolds and Then Packs Itself Away
I'm feeling better now, but feel the after effects of the event that wasn't
I feel I need to care less
Instead of feeling all the pain
The pain I can't take
I still grieve that I leave it with you
I close my eyes and grieve
You won't know that
Is everything wrong with me
Or everything right
I feel unnecessary
I'm invited to the parties
I'm sought out on the phone
People want me to know
That I should never feel alone
But I cry silently
And say I'm fine
I'm writing these lines
With tears streaming down my face
All about a feeling, that I can't particularly place
Two lots of bad news, last night, then today
I think I wasn't fixed
But I carried on anyway
I'm so much less than I could be
In every single thing
My self awareness off the chart
As I'm held together whilst falling apart
I don't know why I cry
I don't know why I'm sad
There could be nothing wrong
If I cared less
Overwhelmed by emotion
Maybe I cry for myself
It's like I'm tangled in branches
Unable to break free
The wind that casts me skywards
Is nothing but a breeze
Light showers of rain
And I'm falling to my knees
I need to pick myself up
All I need is self belief
When the wind blows in my favour
I'm soaring out of sight
But I'm digging my own grave
Before it turns night
