• Staring blankly ahead
    Reminiscing of the past
    Eyes sting with an onslaught of tears
    You ask if I’m alright
    I’m fine, perfectly fine
    Smiling and laughing it off
    Just wishing to be seen
    The dam breaks and it floods
    Nobody knows it nor can they see
    Yet, I suffocate and struggle
    I scream and cry
    Save me from this nightmare
    Please see me for what is hidden
    Let me grab at the edge
    Let me feel alive
    When you grasp at the edge
    And truly feel alive
    Let me live in the moment
    As you encircle me in your arms
    Let me feel safe
    Let me feel loved
