Unspoken Words

words written but never spoken
thoughts in your head not always true
decisions made then changed in a second
choices made just to make it through
complete oblivion only a heart beat away
darkness surrounds to suffocate
the light always seems so far away
caught in the depths of sadness
struggling to claw your way out
so many things in life to be happy about
why is it so hard to see
i open my eyes and see whats in front of me
time to leave the past behind
