My worries
My worries lies in the smiles I fake
The laughter that is inflicted with pain
The tears I hide
Words I choose not to say
Nights where sleep does not come easy
Days I wish to skip
Thoughts I dismiss
Actions I can’t explain
The anger that is filled within
Coupled with trauma , pain
Will I ever know peace?
Peace ?
That is foreign in my world
With voices that rule that land
Voices that keep me awake at night
That terrorises me
Have I become my own poison ?
What happened to the sunny days?
Calm mornings
Stolen by the voices in my head
My worries lies in my bleeding heart,
yearning for comfort
My worries
