I'm Doing Alright

Tangled in a tapestry
of mixed emotions.
Lost in dizzy dreams.
When the notion arises
to scream... I do so.



Inside my unheard cries
ring like bells, but as far
as anyone else can tell...
I'm doing alright.




I wear it well you know,
this facade of lies.
But if you look closely,
really close you might just
see these tear stains
in the corners of my eyes.




Because I do cry, I cry at
night time when no one is around.
I have days when I wish
the ground would open up
and swallow me whole.


(in fact everyday)




Inside my unheard cries
ring like bells, but as far
as anyone else can tell...
I'm doing alright.

But Enter I Must

If you heard the screams
I have to hear coming from
inside that dark forest.
Would you face them?


It's clear I’m being asked
to take the plunge...
just get past that mental wall
that keeps me locked
on the dark side of who I am,
and who I’m striving not to be.


Will I ever know
What’s at the end of the path?
I’m much to scared to enter
But enter I must...
Take those first steps,
It might not be as bad as I think.
