The Silver In My Mind
Sad one for the one millionth time
There’s no tears
No heartbreak
Just a gravity in my chest and soul
Weighing me down
Like the stone fell to the ground
Like I’m doomed and so is this world
Except I’m the only one feeling
Seeing, the world in the colour
My eyes know from my mind
Maybe they’re may be some
Who wonder like I
In some corner of the world
Do you feel it and hear it too?
Until then, I sit with it alone
But no, not alone do I bear the burden
The only silver lining in being miserable
Seems to be that I can only sit in it, for so long
Before I turn to where I need to go
To ask for a cure
