Weathered by grief
The cracks begin to let through the light
Claustrophobic on the inside
Burns my eyes
Seeking comfort in her arms
And crying on her shoulder
Could you hold me for now?
Until we are older
Through the darkness comes the daylight
Fight or flight
I wish you could reach down
And feel how
Gasping for air til I drown
Until we meet again
Can you feel the flowers grow
Straight up through the carpet
Up to you
Momentary subtle insight
Pain ignites
Words falling on deaf ears
Living in your own world
Pillars are breaking down
Do you hear me now?
I want to tell you I love you
When you're not at your weakest
Could you hold me for now?
Just for now
