A Break

A break, a break from the harsh realities of life that’s all;

It’s hard, it’s hard to keep up with societies standards of being the perfect child, perfect person, perfect student;

A lie, a lie is the life I’m displaying to the public;

Who am I?

Does it get any harder?

What is this hurt?

What am I allowed to express?

A break, a break from the life that doesn’t allow me to live;

A burden, a burden who doesn’t want to add on to the struggles of another;

The silence, the silence of a voice who is suppressed in the darkness of their heart;

A heart, a heart that is consumed in so much hurt;

A tear, a tear from the overwhelming emotions of a damaged heart;

A tear, a tear for what was unavailable to the life of this broken soul.
