Sitting with my chest tight
Trying not to fight the feeling you buried beneath my ribs
Sore lungs from screaming too long
Like a song that was torn apart and thrown together again
You were the bridge in my lyrical masterpiece
But that's broken now
I wish I could tell you how you stole my heart and ripped it in half
No I'm not mad, I'm disappointed
Disappointed in myself, because I thought I was stronger
Thought I could hold my head up longer
Keep my nose above water
But my feet can't even touch bottom
You were one of the butterflies i held in my stomach
Tiny creatures that only caused panic and worsened my nerves
Nerves that tore my fingernails till they bled
Nerves that kept me from resting my head at night
And raising it the next morning
I'm not depressed but its hard to be happy
The emotions I display are lacking
Only because I'd rather say nothing than regret thrashing you with my words
It might be nice to give you a piece of my mind
Gift wrap it and tie it with a ribbon
Throw it into the world and hope it finds it's way to you
I don't know what to do
