I Just Thought
I thought I could say what I wanted, but now all hope
is gone.
Silence now is what keeps me company through out the
night.
And lonely ness is all that I can cling to.
Washed away is hope as tears fall from my heart.
For in trying to lighten my load I have only over
burdened those around me, and now I have scared them away.
Afraid to speak, I hide my tears, and silently carry my burden
as my legs begine to crack.
I sink in a quicksand that no one can see, but only I
can feel.
Have I've seen my brightest
days, are they yet to appear?
I look for a speck of sun light, yet no-one is around to help me find
it. .
and lonely ness is all that I can cling to anymore.
