Falling Apart

Morning comes

But no light makes it in

I rise to stay moving — not to feel

Even breathing feels like work

Each step sinks like quicksand

The fog in my mind hides every way out

And now it feels

Like the sky is falling on top of me

And now it feels

Like I've been buried alive

And now it feels

Like I have the weight

Of the world inside my chest

And now it feels

Like every piece of me is falling apart

And now it feels

Like every piece of me is falling apart

And now it feels

Like every piece of me is falling apart

I fill the day

With tasks to outrun the dark

Still, the silence finds me

Smiling hides the cracks

But I'm eroding underneath

I know I can't outrun this forever

The flood is close

And I'm too tired to move

The flood hits

I sink beneath everything I buried

I scream, but nothing answers

Hope flickers

Like a candle in a storm

This weight is all I have

And I'm breaking under it

And now it feels like the sky

Is falling on top of me

And now it feels

Like I've been buried alive

And now it feels

Like I have the weight

Of the world inside my chest

And now it feels

Like every piece of me is falling apart

And now it feels

Like every piece of me is falling apart

And now it feels

Like every piece of me is falling apart
