The Cries Inside
Another failed relationship
a Love not meant to be.
I feel lost inside
a hollow shell of what
once was me.
I cannot mourn the loss of another
my heart is far too empty
I feel the waning, mournful
song within my heart
A song that has lasted for far
too long.
A song that I know all too well.
Can I stop this endless cycle
of have and have not?
To jump off this cyclical ride
that I can no longer handle?
I have attempted it before
and failed,
and saw a part of myself that was ugly.
It turned me away
from everything I had hoped to be.
I have been to the edge
and did not like what I saw within.
The scar is still inside me
and prevents me from
going back.
So I cannot jump off this endless cycle
The desire is not there.
So I drift into endless days
in the late summer of my life
Numbed, I cannot feel
the cries inside.
