I remember
The aching pain
Of my unwell brain
Of a constant melody
Of screaming agony
Where I hold this ingrained desire
To extinguish the fire
Burning in my tourmented soul
Melting my heart of gold
And when all there is left
Is survival or death,
I see the coward that I am
As I can barely stand
Before the enormous hurt
Of never being heard.
Soon I realize, being alive
Is a game of never ending cries
