My heart is crumbling My eyes full of pain Tears sliding down my cheeks in frustration As nobody hears I’m crying in the dark Reaching for a light Watching as everyone moves by me Looking past me not at me I’m stationary in a crowd of moving people Feeling like a statue with feelings On the outside I am hard My features crumbling on the surface Holding on to something that is no longer there All I can do as a statue is stare at the people moving by me Smiles on their faces They know how to be happy They have so many people who care And I am out of sight Like an invisible moon On a clear night I am the statue That is full of pain and sorrow on the inside But on the outside I am hard Shielding myself from people who try to see what I’m feeling |
