When all you see is dark,
And your skin doesn’t feel like yours anymore;
When life becomes a weight so unbearable,
Every breath is a tiresome chore.
DON’T BE SCARED. IT’S OKAY!
When the words stop making sense,
And silence begins to flow through you;
Smile like an object, is glued to your face,
And you don’t even know if it’s true.
DON’T BE SCARED. IT’S OKAY!
When an uninvited guest sits within,
Humming a tune that only you can hear;
Surprised they are to see you falter on this path so well-paved,
Unaware of all the weight that you silently bear.
DON’T BE SCARED. IT’S OKAY!
So, when all you see is dark,
And everything becomes heavier;
Don’t push yourself too hard to radiate light,
Rather shed a few tears until it becomes easier.
DON’T BE SCARED. IT’S OKAY!
