[bodytext] => These tears pour out. They’re so hard to control. Before I can hide them, down my cheeks they roll. They pour out for reasons I thought they never would. Reasons, I thought they never should. Old feelings rush back again. Ready to grasp at my arms, offer me a chair. They tell me to sit a while, smell the familiar air. The air is bitter and stale. Once so comfortably real. I feel helpless and inferior. To those who stand superior. I’m out of ideas and loopholes. I sit in honest awe and astonishment. I’m so pained with discontent. My disbelief and ignorance. Have been tamed by common sense. Reality is a harsh way to learn. It’s a slap in the face that leaves it’s mark like a burn. I hate to rely on others to keep afloat. A burden to load on another boat. But how can I try to get by. When even the ground stands taller through my eye. I’m below sea level and carrying a weight. I can’t let it go, this is my fate.
