Let Me Out
Is there no escape from this madness?
Let me out,
I cannot breathe,
My chest is heavy,
Inhaling shallow with guilt,
Will this madness never end?
A break seems to surely never arrive,
The pelting rain,
Pounding down,
From the black cloud above me,
Surrounded by the pale grey skies.
Let me out of my own head.
My heart is non-existent,
My soul has been long since buried,
The day you left,
Without so much as a goodbye,
The blame is undoubtedly my own,
A burden I must carry,
Weighting me downward,
Astronomically massive cross to bear,
I am forever destined to be,
Your lifelong baggage,
Emotional anchor even.
Let me out; please set me free,
Never was it my intention,
To be the source of your grief,
I love you so much,
To the point it physically,
Pains my physical being,
To ponder the thought,
That I will never again,
Get to call you mine,
To get to…
