Description
All these feelings and thoughts,
Locked away in my mind.
A prisoner to myself,
No escape I can find.

I run forever in endless halls,
But all I can see are the blank walls.
There's nowhere to hide,
No one to turn to.
I'm broken and lost,
No way to break through.

I try to scream out,
To explain what I'm feeling.
I drag my friends down,
When they really need healing.

I try to help out,
To show them the answers.
I fall and I stumble,
Tripping on personal failures.
I want to give up,
But I have to keep going.

Though I feel broken,
Though I feel bruised.
Though my heart hurts,
And I sometimes feel shattered.

I know that they need me,
That I need to be strong.
That I need to hold on,
To help them keep moving along.
They need me to keep fighting,
Even if the journey is long.

So though I feel broken,
Beaten and shattered.
I stay strong for them,
Because to me they're all that matters.
