My mind and all its contents
I thought that I was alright,
that I'd long ago been recovered.
But with the passing of each day,
Holding back my tears gets harder.
The smile I wear is even more strained.
The beating of my heart is even more eratic,
My emotions are magnified,
My words must be watched,
I feel defeated, that I've already lost.
My heart,
My hope,
My friends,
My dreams,
My confidence,
My future,
Myself.
That I am kissing it all away,
Just to appear
stronger
kinder
calmer
but is that worth losing my mind and all its contents?
that I'd long ago been recovered.
But with the passing of each day,
Holding back my tears gets harder.
The smile I wear is even more strained.
The beating of my heart is even more eratic,
My emotions are magnified,
My words must be watched,
I feel defeated, that I've already lost.
My heart,
My hope,
My friends,
My dreams,
My confidence,
My future,
Myself.
That I am kissing it all away,
Just to appear
stronger
kinder
calmer
but is that worth losing my mind and all its contents?
