A sickness inside of me,
reaching my skin.
It covers everything.
Rubbing my eyes as they tear,
angry at the world.
Screaming inside that you'll never hear.
It's so loud it's shattering.
Fists clenched,
my fucking teeth won't stop chattering.
"I'm not the one you should fear."
I keep saying to others,
when fear myself the most.

A warm spring day.
The sun heals me slowly,
covering my numbness with it's light touch.
I then see you,
ever so lovely.
Singing your song,
raised up by your arms,
holding me so gently.
My tears are gone,
along with the pain.
Making me feel once again,
like the soon summer rain.
Everyone takes cover,
as I lie there calmly.
Bleeding in love,
cured by your melody.
