Analysis of No Control Over My Feelings
I can’t breathe,
I can’t cry.
I hide my feelings inside
And hope they’ll go away.
I feel so tired,
I feel so exhausted.
I don’t want to keep going
Because this battle is
Lasting much too long.
I can’t take this pain,
I just can’t save myself.
I can’t think,
I feel paralyzed.
I feel so numb
And I can’t handle this pain.
I feel like I’m about to break
Because my mind is screaming,
My heart is aching,
I’m slowly dying,
And I can’t do this.
