everything I couldn't say

Overwhelmed

Overwhelmed completely

By the simple thought 'what if'

It's slowly taking over me

Resting heavily on my chest

'Take deep breaths, in and out

It will calm you down'

But yet it hasn't helped at all

In a pool of my own anxious tears , terrified; I drown

Tears slip down my cheeks

Pulling me down farther

Chains around my neck and feet

I hit the ground even harder

Filling up and up and up

Till I've finally reached the top

I cannot handle it much longer

In an explosion of humiliation

Pretty soon, I'll pop

What happened to the smile that would rest upon my lips

What about the joyful electricity, that would surge and reach my finger tips

'Anything could happen' Are the words that scare me most

Spinning around & around, I've quickly become lost

It's as if I've gotten stuck on the worst ride at the park

Except this park isn't for my amusement

It's and amusement park for the dark

Doing flips and insane sharp turns until it makes me sick

And right when I think it's over completely, it starts back all too quick

Please don't let yourself fall in

To all of this pain and sorrow

Make sure your day is kept happy

Because you control the better tomorrow.
