When the Summer Rained
Hot air causes me to sweat
Stress causes me to cry
There’s nowhere to hide from my emotions
But I still try
Food hates me
Weight loss deteriorates me
They ask me what’s wrong but I have no answer
Confusion and anger cloud my judgement
I want to move forward but I have no legs
Life moves around me as I stay stagnant
Regret from past future and present chain me to the floor
And when I look for understanding there is no more
I search for my purpose to no avail
I work so hard only to fail
I pick up my pencil and I cannot focus
I use my words but I cannot speak
Loneliness in a crowd of people keeps me quiet
So many emotions and I just wanna hide it
How do you handle loving a lover who’s heart is your no more?
How do you stand when you want to fall on the floor?
I try to be strong and just have patience
But my patience is breaking me to the core
My desperation for love is my demise
I swim in a sea of whys
I suffocate waiting for true love to find me
I just wait for true love to try me
