I long to express my deepest feelings.
But I'm unable to; the cause remains unclear.
A burden weighs heavily on my heart.
A necklace of thorns tightens around my throat.
Tears flow down my cheeks.
As my shadows slowly depart from me.
My soul is being drained by these weights and burdens.
May the day arrive when these scars find solace in time's embrace.
but I once thought time had no power.
Once I thought I had no strength,
I caused myself pain.
I'm lost in my own mind.
Seeking solace, searching for a cure,
I am searching for answers to why I feel this way.
