Venting while Typing

April 10, 2015

My heart is breaking,

my faith is shaking,

too much is what all of this stress is taking.

Can't calm down,

can't look around,

on the outside I smile.

On the inside I frown...

So tired of life,

so tired of the knife,

it's not giving the same feeling anymore.

With myself, full of strife.

I see the light,

i'm in the dark,

every day i fall deeper,

while being torn apart.

Can't let it show,

won't let this go,

everyday my stress and depression grows.

Maybe it's time,

to confess to my crimes...

I'm broke, I don't have a dime.

Everyone thinks i'm rich.

Everyone thinks i'm a bitch.

That or i'm being called a nasty snitch.

People think i'm a hypocrite.

So tired of the bullshit.

That's only some; not afraid to admit it.

I can give anyone advice,

tell them what I think should be done.

When it comes to my troubles,

I feel there's nowhere to run.

I try my hardest, to forgive everyday,

but with myself is what i really can't dare say.

I guess this is just me venting while typing.

I don't know the source of why I am writing..

At this point, I don't care, soon I may explode.

Soon people may see what I never wanted to show...
