i'm giving up.
there isn't anything here for me anymore,
a hurricane struck my soul,
a tornado tore me apart,
a flood overflowed because of my sorrow
so like i said i'm giving up.
my eyes are red from rubbing my eyes, the endless tears caused by endless pain.
my lips are bleeding from biting them, a bad habit when the stress got to be too much.
i couldn't handle it,
i couldn't do it,
i failed.
so i waved the white flag.
i surrender
you might have a thousand reasons why i shouldn't
but i'm the single reason why i should.
my mind told me sinister things,
to the point where i couldn't sleep,
i couldn't breathe.
i was holding myself back but now i'm letting go.
i surrender.
