Have You Ever...

Have you ever
Turned on the shower
Fell to the floor
And let the water fall
As you cry
So no one can see
Cradle yourself in pain
Letting the water wash away your tears
No one can tell you’re crying
The waters drains away it all
Soaking in your own sorrow
Depression in the form of water
Surrounding you and engulfing you
Knees pressed against your chest
As you wrap your arms around your legs
Cradle your face in your legs
Your body in a spasm
The water dripping from your eyes
All evidence of your pain
Washed away

No one can see your tears
No one can see your pain
No one can see your sorrow
No one can see you…

Have you ever
Just laid in your bed
Feeling there is no reason to wake up
Letting your dreams become your reality
Dreams being so much better than waking up
Rolling in bed
Staring at the clock
Waiting for night to come again
You’re not tired but you keep your eyes closed
Praying something better will come
When you open them up
Keep your door locked
So no one can wake you up
So you can dream on
Sleep on
When you open your eyes
Everything seems so pointless
“Why am I awake?”
You just lay there staring at the ceiling
Feeling that endless sorrow
Then you feel that warm water
Fall from your eye and slide to your ear
The air touch the wetness
And all you feel is the cold.

No one can see your tears
No one can see your pain
No one can see your sorrow
No one can see you…
