The Lack of Light

It's just happened again
From fine to not
Like some twines or vines have got me caught
The sun it shines, had spring in my step
Then the pain appears within my chest
I'll distract with work, have a complex job
Focus my thoughts, clear the fog
The whole of my ribs begin to ache
Just nothing at all makes my heart re-break
I'll hug my family, stroke the dog

 Ahh the dog is sat in a solo sunbeam
Clearly lost in a peaceful dream

I think I've just swallowed too many tears
Failed to untangle old indecipherable fears
Put barriers up to feeling like that again
Feel pressure exerted from old repressed pain
I'm the semi broken girl who lets the light shine in
That can't keep it lit because it's not from within
I need a light source of my own
Maybe then I'll rest easy and feel home
