Your pain hurts
It tears me up inside
Knowing you are breaking open and wide
It hurts my heart seeing your pain
Seeing the losses with no gain
A battle within that has commanded control
Playing games and crushing your soul
Losing yourself within this state
Filling you with doubt and hate
The pain you vocally project
The wrath of emotion you direct
The delicate nature of your brain chemicals
Hurts my brains receptacles
It’s not easy to keep calm
When my thoughts and feelings are like napalm
A battle to keep frustrations under control
It hard for my heart and mind to console
The anger rages beneath my skin
My mind also takes me for a spin
When you are not okay
We both end up in a state of decay
You always need to stay open and honest
As that is what you once promised
In this together whatever happens
One day the demons inside will flatten
