My fists are clenched held to my chest unending fear proximately near to the space containing my breath My knuckles white my skin drawn tight the veins they pop composure stops the tears roll further in the night A spot on the wall to give it my all the hole is wide just like inside the rift in my chest filled with gall The moment gone the distance long time passes quick my eyes are tricked what I once thought truth is now wrong You are the key come set me free uncage my wings my heart may sing the song it sang when you met me The lights are dark without the spark of embers alive nor hearts to thrive no more dreams for us to embark. My Fists Are Clenched.

My Fists Are Clenched
My fists are clenched held to my chest unending fear proximately near to the space containing my breath My knuckles white my skin drawn tight the veins they pop composure stops the tears roll further in the night A spot on the wall to give it my all the hole is wide just like inside the rift in my chest filled with gall The moment gone the distance long time passes quick my eyes are tricked what I once thought truth is now wrong You are the key come set me free uncage my wings my heart may sing the song it sang when you met me The lights are dark without the spark of embers alive nor hearts to thrive no more dreams for us to embark. My Fists Are Clenched.
whenever anguished i always notice my fists are closed in on themselves and clenched tight, and squeezing them harder makes the pain go away
