The world still turns

I can not let this take me under
I must accept what can’t be changed
I found a nightmare in my dreams
But nothing else has rearranged
The world still turns and I’m amazed
It doesn’t end when hope is gone
I still wake up, breathe in and out
The sun still shines and life goes on
It is a curse to own my heart
What I would give to just be numb
Instead the words and feelings rush me
Untill I’m completely overcome
I have to hold on to the thought
It will be worth it at the end
I will be stronger from this fight
And have the time and space to mend
This life is more than overwhelming
Sometimes I just can’t stand my ground
But really what’s the point in screaming
If no one’s there to hear the sound
We have one life, we have to live it
We can’t just let joy pass us by
The climb is tough and high and scary
But we can make it if we try.
Please

Please don’t tell me that you understand
Or that you know how I must feel
Please don’t ignore the situation
As thought that might make it not be real
You can not know what it is like
Until you’ve walked this very road
Although I know you wish you could
You can not help me bear this load
Please just accept that I am hurting
And forgive my vacant eyes
And please don’t ask if I’m okay
Because the answer will be lies
I ask you not to judge my selfishness
Please don’t despise my honesty
Because you could never loath my thoughts
Or my words as much as me
I cringe at what I have become
I”m scared I’ll never be the same
Will my life always be this crater
Full of bitterness and shame?
Just please don’t ask me to explain to you
What you can never understand
If you are prepared to walk beside me
All I ask is ”Take my hand”
