Bearing It

Unexplained aches? Unshared thoughts? Secrets too dark. Too shameful habits.

The secret is tearing through

Wanting to be heard

My blood, dripping

As I silenced my fears

Can't take it any longer

Yet couldn't risk making a sound

The stinging, too much to handle

But my razors couldn't stop

Help, too impossible

An understanding soul, too far

My misery, too heavy

But still couldn't reach out
