What is this feeling?
What is this lump in my chest?
What is this knot in my stomach?
Why this sudden need to rest?
I was happy, I was fine
Everything was so divine
Then suddenly it all comes down
Crashing, plummeting to the ground
That pang of shame,
That twinge of guilt
The heavy weight
Is like a quilt
Must I suffer the consequences
Of an action I did not commit?
I feel like someone is talking ill
Behind my back, I cannot help it
Why does it weigh so much on me?
Why do I feel like I am not free?
Is it not true that I've been set free?
So why is it so hard to be me?
I want to be alone
I want to be unashamed
Where I'm not judged or thrown away
Where there's no-one to be blamed
Until then, my bag of stones
Will be my only companion
As I sink further and deeper still
Into the abyss; mind, skin and bone
