Confession Of My Brokenness.

Sometimes I burn away in my thoughts
So profound that there's nothing left to say.
There's nothing more I can do but pray.
I'm trying but I can't find a way.

I'm trapped, I'm trying.
I'm trying to hold on.
But... I feel like I'm dying.
The old me is gone.

I can be in a room full of people,
But still feel like I'm alone.
Like I don't belong.
Like I'm a different jigsaw piece
Stuck in the wrong puzzle.

All I hear is muffled voices.
I can't do anything to stop these noises.
My OWN mind is driving me crazy.
Comparing the old life I had
To the one I have.

I can't stand this pain.
I'm constantly feeling drained.
How did I get here?
I don't think I can go on.
This has been going on for way too long...
