Loose Canon

by Baby Rainbow   Aug 29, 2015


Suddenly the rain came down,
leaving me sinking in the sand
of this everlasting agony.

There's always a cry behind my smile,
a sky without a sun,
inside this hidden world of mine.

I don't want to see the end,
but I am always drawn to the place
that I know will take my misery away.

So I'm choking back the tears,
scared to take one more step
because it's getting hard to breathe,
and I feel like a loose canon with no control
as these emotions inside of me
continue to grow.

    ""There is always a cry behind my smile".
    This line really caught my eye. I call them the tears of a clown. While we are hurting and crying inside, we put this smile on our face so others don't know what is going on. Emotions can be very overwhelming to the point we don't know which way to go. You expressed yours in an excellent way.
