Eyes burning like a thousand suns
I hang my head low, in despair
And grasp my hands so tightly in prayer
WHERE ARE YOU, GOD?
Please, it’s getting so hard to breath
I know it will be better
But right now it’s not
Cold, burning tears
They feel cold and wet
Suddenly they burn and my face too
I want to find a way to not live this way
Eyes stinging
I type, I think, I sip coffee
There is hope at the end of this endless tunnel
I’m digging my way out of
It keeps collapsing and my progress is stopped
Eye wide open
I keep digging
Thinking about happier times
Trying not to get more sad, more upset
Trying not to get lost in my darkness
Cold, burning tears
I dig my way out
No looking back
Time will heal
For now, I must go on with my day
The sadness writhes inside
I must hope better days are soon
