I would explain how I feel, if only I knew how.
I would tell you about the tears, but they just keep falling down.
I would silence my screams, but they choke me til' I let them out.
I would go on and on, trying to make a fairy tale life,
but it's truly just a storm.
My thoughts swirl through my mind like ice.
And I am not able to stop the rain from over-shadowing my every move.
But every once in awhile, the sun comes out
And then, I see a rainbow of colors and unspoken opportunities.
Only to be hailed down sooner, by the thing I keep inside of me.
Lightning strikes as I feel myself bleed,
And only after that, may I truly feel peace.
