I'm Breaking

Mandi

Holding it together the best I can terrified to let go

 

Feeling the pieces slowly ripping apart one by one

 

Choking on the lump of responsibility stuck in my throat

 

If I scream will it release its hold on me

 

If I cry will it wash away with my tears

 

I want to hide away until this feeling subsides

 

I keep searching reluctantly for my beacon of hope

 

A sign revealing the end of this suffering

 

But I'm drowning in this sorrow reaching up

 

Grasping at nothing and descending fast

 

My heart strains with every waver and ache

 

I sit with a blank stare ahead empty and lost

 

I'm breaking
