Damage is done

 PTSD

 

1.Why do I cry towards the sky,

If I could, would I even try?

If I could reach out to my dreams

Would I drop all the heavy things?

 

2.And will I ever open up?

My lips are sealed, had too much stuff,

I want to see, the lights are shut,

Wish I could speak, my tongue is cut.

 

3.I hear it takes some time to heal,

Until your heart is made of steel,

Until your skin rejects each touch,

I think I may have healed too much.

 

4.Stop insisting, I can’t do it!

And it’s more comfortable to quit;

I’m still outnumbered by my fears,

Will spend my life counting down years.
