I'm no Bomb
Piece by piece
My body is torn
Week by week
My soul mourns
"You're always happy" they all say.
"Never down "
But the struggle they say is real I go through
Day after day
Pulling and tugging
Holding and sliding
Eventually it's gonna burn once fate has decided
I'm a rope, with very few strings left
Ripping and popping with every single breath
But no, I'm no bomb
I don't blow
So I put on this hard shell so no one will have to know
In public I'm a talkative person
In private I'm shy
I can barely ask my self a serious question
Without looking my reflection in the eye
It's hard to come clean to oneself than it is to others
So instead I take my anger on my mother, father, and brother
But, I'm still no bomb
I hold in my explosives
Then I take it out on my mom
She loves me, yes I know
But it's so hard to fight urges that you hold everyday
Then come home and its no longer okay
