Im afraid to reach out and touch what I don't see But I've already gone too far to turn back Is there no one here who will comfort me? Why do I insist on holding back this flood of tears I know it's destroying me, tearing me apart inside. But I can never seem to find the right moment To cry myself to sleep. Peace is eluding me dancing just out of my reach, and despair is following me everywhere whispering words of darkness into my ears. Why do I feel the need to appear strong when anyone who looks closer can see that I am worn and weak, Im only fooling myself. Im tired or charades tired of looking for the hidden messages in your words why can't you just tell me what you really mean before I decide it's too hard and painful to care. This is becoming too much for me to handle, the constant pain pushing in the background everyday the worry and fear I try to keep from showing on my face, but I can't let go just because I want to.

Hey there! This is a very bitter-sweet poem. It's beautifully written, but very sad. It's got a very good flow. "I wish I could carry your smile in my heart, for times when my life seems so low" |
