Stone


My heart hurts but all I can do is remember what it was it was like before

There was no pain

Not like this anyway

I was Happier

I was Kinder

I was Whole

Now I'm broken

I'm not sure I'll ever heal

I hurt those aound me

And I can't see it

 

All there is fighting and yelling

And all it does is make me hurt more

All I want is Peace

 

I show no weakness

Simply because I can't

Someone has to be strong for him

He's too young for this kind of pain, this heart break

But sometimes my stone facade cracks

And it all comes rushing out into the open

I feel as if they every chance they get to brake me more.
