Mama I'm dying,
From this chronic illness there's no denying.
This sadness eats away at my being like a cancer,
You ask me what's wrong but I do not have an answer.
My weary soul will never Rest In Peace.
Oh mama if only you knew,
All the times I've cried for you.
At 2:00 am when my worlds falling apart,
When all the pain flows through my heart.
My thoughts go wild,
The happy thoughts ever so mild.
Dreamless sleep blackness surrounds me,
My minds a prison I just want to be free.
Mama please know I'm trying,
But if I said I was fine I was most definitely lying.
