Days

The day breaks
Yet my mind is dark
Filled with thoughts
I cannot voice
A deep breath in
And a slow exhale
I sense the storm
Awaiting each morning
My needs fall second
To those around
I am left with scraps
While they bathe in gold
I’m being pulled and twisted
Forced to break
My fragile soul
Now shattered and crushed
A mind once inquisitive
Now sits in silence
As not to disrupt
I am not important
To anyone anymore
And as the night falls
My mind an eerie cold
A lack of emotions
Yet I feel them all to deeply
My world has stopped
Yet time continues
I fall asleep
With the company of thoughts
Their negativity so powerful
I may never wake again
