I’m full of words I dare not speak
Full of feelings I can not keep
I’m filled to bursting, it’s hard to breathe.
It gets harder and harder each day
To live as if I’m doing okay.
Sometimes I pretend to feel no pain
Often I weep alone, to hide my shame
Behind my smile my heart breaks
My whole being feels like lead
And I face the future with much dread.
I feel a void inside my being
An empty place without any feeling
Icy numbness envelops my heart.
I reach for something I know not what
But blessed peace I crave, to forget is what I want.
