Words I wish I'd learnt to say
I'm really not okay
deflated self-worth
infected with hurt
rejected my own
projected a mask of smiles and mirth
Things I found it hard to say
I could really use a hand
some help along the way
a friend
someone that will talk over the voices that descend
help me see the silver lining
to the clouds that form when I’m on a hill declining
Words I struggled to portray
that I'm feeling so lost in this world today
I need someone with an infectious smile
that will spread the contagion for many a mile
to make mine come alive once more
I'd catch that disease without an uproar
Things I wish I'd known
That when you hurt
not just in the skin and bones
But in every atom of your being
having a friend to hug is the best feeling
being able to share how the days sometimes feel like nights
how it hurts to live with pain inside, the ache that bites
in your chest, the sting of loneliness winning
the icy frozen screams of a life slipping
into the side streets of the abandoned and weak
with nothing but the darkness so bleak
Thanks For Reading
Peace & Love.
Kyle.
