Burden of the Truth
She cries and cries
 Her tears to heavy for her swollen red eyes to with stand
 The pain in her heart is so surreal 
 She’s sorry, so sorry
 She has no strength
 She’s weak and it’s so plain to see
 Her emotions only making her pathetic
 The girl thought her suffering had gone away
 Clearly it hasn’t
 The world she lives in continues to rotate sideways
 Traveling in the other direction
 It makes her head spin
 Her stomach full of knots feeling ready to heave
 And she laughs such a heart broken laugh
 Giving a fake shattering smile
 How pitiable can she be?
 What a frail fool to sob for a moronic reason
 She’s too much to handle
 Slowly the girl starts to believe that maybe something is truly wrong with her
 Has she always been this way?
 Or is it that she hurts because she loves?
 Your innocent words hurt her because she truly loves you?
  How sad is that?
 This useless fool who is easily hurt
 How can she possible love or be loved?
 When at least a day she can honestly laugh
 But were most of her days she wishes she never existed
 Most days were she wishes she could just disappear and reappear where no one can find her 
 How could this wretched girl be me?
