Description
Every night, I think of many things
When I talk to you, I do the same
I choose my words, filter my phrases
I care what you care, unaware of the momentum

These actions so thought out
They bring a burden to my being
My mind's true thoughts so diluted
I tear away my own spirit

Each outward word
Is a cry for help
And when I collapse
It's a call for attention

Like a caterpillar lowly
Soon to be cocooned
Once they break free as a butterfly
They have only days until they die

I crawl on my hands and knees
Hoping to awake from my nightmare
And live in the light of day
And not die alone
