Struggling


2 years and still going

Its crazy how I never saw this coming. 

My heart can be so outgoing

Blind is what caused my bumming.

 

The words, the hands

I cannot stand to be like this anymore

My heart feels like its wrapped in bands 

Squeezing until I can no longer feel more 

 

I need the courage, I need the strength

I need to find a way to escape. 

Until then, to this day

It's 2 years and still going...
