Truth in this Grave

by Rayne   Mar 1, 2012


I want to go back
To the place I left my soul
To the place it all went down
The last place I felt whole
Years can't escape
This feeling of dread
This feeling of insanity
You're still in my head
And I want to scream everyday
I want to break down in tears
I want to cut you out with a knife
I'm still chained down in fear
Some days I think it's over
But it's only a lie
I need to tell my story
I can't escape what I hide
Yet still I keep silent and pretend
I'm not that girl who was hurt
I will not face others judgment
I will not objectify others concern
This burden I will carry alone
And trust they will not see
What I hide in plain sight
They're pity will not focus on me
I will take my shame and bury it
So deep beneath my skin
Not even I can dig it out
My freedom I will never win

    Living in fear is a terrible thing to go through for we cannot break out of it due to fear and we can't seem to seek help or confide in others because of what their reaction will be. We tend to be strong but that won't last long either...hope you will be able to recover from this situation..take care.
