I wake up and try to think I can do this today I can will the anxiety away

The tears I have not shed 

For the arms I have not felt  For the tears I have not shed  For the loneliness your absence brings  For the years of torment and pain  I hope you got what you needed from me  I hope what you stole was worth it to you You created a monster that day  The day you … Continue reading The tears I have not shed 

I will never stop fighting 

I feel the emptiness as it starts to grow  I feel it slip through the cracks  It is starting to show  My face no longer wants to smile  The anger inside me  It just continues to build  The rage it boils  The pain burns  As my fists clench  I know I will fight you all  … Continue reading I will never stop fighting
