Gray
The firmness
of Mother Earth
has fallen away
My feelings
I should have kept
deeply hidden within
Let nothing penetrate you
Become the color of gray
Do not feel and you
will not care
Death becomes me
yet I still live
The pain slowly fading
Feeling numb
and dying inside
Nothing seems to matter
I simply don't care
With nowhere to hide
I slip deeper into dispair
My smile disappearing
my eyes becoming so dull
With a heart so heavy
It'd be nice to
escape from it all
Remembering my faith
A Christian I am
and knowing there's
much more in store
Words coming from
someone you once loved
ripping your heart out
casting it to the floor
A skeleton of
my former self
My prayers
and my children
are all I now have
I will try
to rebuild
Able to trust
with feelings renewed
may be impossible
for me to do
Life is such
a struggle it seems
I wish it were all but a dream
Anguish,pain,suffering,and shame
All of those years
were they just thrown away
I was a fool
and now know what to do
I won't let my guard down
not ever again
No I'm just
going to stay
the color of gray
Sitting up at night to
silently pray
For some wonderful day
my pain will slip
forever away
