than I can bear
They sting and burn and choke me
from within
I scarcely can remember how
to breathe
I feel a stranger lost in
my own skin
The tears they burn like acid
on my cheek
Despair so overwhelming
I am blind
How can I put one foot before
the other
When blinded by the pain in my
own mind
I want to curl myself around
this pain
Whether hoping to alleviate
or spare
I breathe around this lump
my hearts become
Shards of shattered hopes
pierce everywhere
