Why am I Crying?

Tears they fall and I don’t know why. This mood I am in, just makes me cry. The anger, the rage just all comes out for no reason. I just break and shout. Fine one minute, the next I am breaking down.

Why is it that my heart is disturbed? My soul is full of questions beyond my own understanding. Why am I crying tears?

I myself do not understand. Why do I ask questions that will never be answered by anyone else but myself…? There is no ear to listen. No one understands my deepest thoughts or pain that appears deep in my soul. My world is crumbling, falling at my feet. While I struggle to keep from accepting defeats.

My battle is to appear strong, while deep inside I have been weak all along. I can’t keep holding onto the hope of tomorrow.

When it just keeps bringing my heart more sorrow. So I sit here alone, I’m a mess, afraid of showing others the emotion I suppress, afraid they will judge me, belittle what I feel.

So I spend my night alone, trying to ignore, trying to deal with it. I don’t know who I am any more. My thoughts run deep. My bottled emotions form into nightmares as I try to sleep. Why can’t someone save me from within…?
