A poem thing

I'm stuck in a hole
One that's six feet deep
I'm stuck in a hole
A hole that you can't see.

I'm buried underneath
All the rules that you lay
I'm climbing my way out
But the hands keep pulling me back.

I ignore the laughter that fills the room
But I can't ignore the look I get from you
The emotionless look you share
The glint of sorrow in your eye

I have a thousand voices in my head
But you're the loudest one I hear
You're words scar my mind
As I claw my way out of the thoughts

It's scary how much a smile can hide, isn't it?
It's scary how fake a laugh can be
But I face my fears
And insist on seeing you again.

But I can't let go of my past
And I can't let go of you

I'm alone in a room full of people
Listening to the words you said
Like a broken record in my mind
But no one's there to turn it off

Will someone please shut off my eyes
Make my sight as dark as my mind
Because maybe then
I'll be able to see my way out of if it

Someone please shatter my mask
Take it from my face and smash it
Because maybe then
I'll be able to smile again

And I look for a way out, but it's hopeless
I'm hopeless
Hopelessly stuck
In a thousand thoughts that make up the stars.

The starts that fill the night sky
As the moon hangs on a silver thread
Floating above all the little people
And I want to join it.

I want to float above the little people
With my friend the moon
And dance on a silver thread
With my family of stars.

I want to float above the little people
With my friend the moon
And dance on a silver thread
With my family of stars.

With my friend the moon
And my family of stars...
