Silently Drowning

As I sit in a room
Afraid and alone,
I start to feel pain
That I don’t condone.
I walk toward the wall
To see a way out,
But I find nothing,
So, I scream and shout.

“Who would do this?
Why is it me?
Why do I suffer,
While others are...

Rust

I am very shaky, and don’t know why.
I believe that my anxiety may be high.

With light, rainbows, and butterflies,
Of days that could have been.
She wonders why she sits ignored,
As her feelings leave her bare,
She thinks these feelings normal,

My Sweet Betrayal

The sweet serenity, broken by the words
Of a person hurt, voice never heard.
Is the glass half empty? Or is it half full?
Does it push, or maybe does it pull?
Is the sand slowly dripping from the glass of time?
Or does it simply turn your heart...
