I've been hurting recently In every way imaginable. My heart shatters within my chest And the pieces splinter painfully. My mind has been pushed until It can take no more. It does not want to be strong anymore How long will it take Before it finally breaks? My hands, they shake violently I cannot keep them still. My legs lug themselves along As my feet become cinderblocks without a cause. My core meets its volatile friend, Anxiety Shooting knives into my stomach With every movement. She makes my breathing shallow And saturates my body In buckets of sweat. Why must this happen now? It's ******* the life from me Day by day Minute by minute Every second I cannot talk I cannot move I cannot be.

I've Been Hurting
I've been hurting recently In every way imaginable. My heart shatters within my chest And the pieces splinter painfully. My mind has been pushed until It can take no more. It does not want to be strong anymore How long will it take Before it finally breaks? My hands, they shake violently I cannot keep them still. My legs lug themselves along As my feet become cinderblocks without a cause. My core meets its volatile friend, Anxiety Shooting knives into my stomach With every movement. She makes my breathing shallow And saturates my body In buckets of sweat. Why must this happen now? It's ******* the life from me Day by day Minute by minute Every second I cannot talk I cannot move I cannot be.
