Sunflower
260 Words
Head pounding
Brain on fire
Is that what you want to hear?
Laying in bed all day
That is what you consider a problem?
You don’t see my problems because I try to hide.
I try to smile when I’m in my darkest hour. I try to be your sunflower.
In my field of gray I try to hide it all away.
Dark,empty box of loneliness
No control over my emotions
That is my truth.
Is that what you want to hear?
No, I am not strong anymore,
Now that I told my story I am weak,
Ask me again why I was hiding.
I try to smile in my darkest hour.
I try to be your sunflower,
In my field of gray, I try to hide it all away.
Sometimes in another world I am free and happy. I laugh,my lips turn up into a mischievous smirk. Then the high goes away and I drop so low. I am in the dark,crawling around,grasping at straws just trying to break the pattern.
I am not an addict,no what can I be addicted to when I was born this way.Does that make me so crazy? Hide,hide away! My head is screaming at me. My heart is the crazy one!
I am thirsting to be accepted,how I would love to be wanted! But to you that is desperation,desperation is weakness, and I am not weak,in the middle of my breaking I work with all my might to find a better life,
What can I do but hide away and be your sunflower?
