#chafe
I feel like I can't speak I want to just yell, shout, and scream But I can't I want to be productive Play the piano and just exhale something inspired and creative But I can't I have a desire to feel anything else To smile and laugh sounds terrific But I can't Because I am a prisoner to my depression It has chained me to this bed As much as I want to get up, the shackles just chafe my skin My skin has become so dry I just want some type of moisture Longing for the sweet hydration of relief The relief of joy When will this end? I want to be release But I can't find the key
