Within Me

Within Me… I don’t think I’ll make it Through another year The wear and tear keeps breaking me down Though I will not shed a tear The darkness that’s upon me Never fades to reveal light Fears alone that I see Hide so deep within me Completely out of sight… The weight I feel upon me Sinks me like a stone And though it seems at times I rise back up I always deal with it alone No words can heal these wounds No consolation calls Silence that surrounds me And screams so deep within me Echo off of all the walls… Walls I’ve built within me Walls I’ve built around The house of cards is crumbling now But still falls without a sound The fears I’ve kept inside me All of those I cannot face Have finally dealt to me This crushing blow That has led to my fall from grace…
