34 Inside Pain

I have never been hurt before

It is lie i keep saying to not seem vulnerable and weak

In front of those i encounter and suddenly meet

I put a mask full of confidence that i am untouchable

But at one conversation my bandages fall of
And my scars are now naked and shown to the world

I feel small and like a bird falling from its nest

Cuz now i will be trapped here down and people will know how deeply hurt i am

I start overthinking, and have inside conversations in my mind

The kind that Steals sleep from my eyes and peace from my mind

I start curling under the stars
Covering myself with different shadows and lights

Counting sheep hoping to have a long blink

That lasts until the sun arise and warm my heart again!

But even though the sun comes
My gray clouds won't allow it to touch me yet

Unresolved pain hidden in rooms in my heart that i searched but i couldn't find

Praying and crying to magically start to feel, clean and make my mind at ease

That keep thinking only of what I lost instead of what I can gain

The pain that's hidden inside my galaxy formed black holes

That steals the glimpses of happiness i sense and feel

It makes me project all the fears and keep running in a maze that never ends or allow me to leave

I keep resisting exposing this pain and let it go

As if i will lose who i am

But till when i will keep counting the sheep

And keep sailing in the dark ocean now for years

I want to reach  the shore already

I want to feel strong and anchored

This fragile side of me that feels trapped in the inside pain that i bottled up through the years want to be released

I start counting again but instead of sheep i count breaths now 1, 2, 3 breath in

1, 2, 3 breath out, it started to hurt, it hurts to feel.

The inside pain have been served!
