Everyday, eyes won't open, legs won't move,
No point in getting up, nothing to see,
Nowhere to go, no-one I know,
Who cares enough to see that I'm stuck,
And reach to me, help me out of this dark, lonely hole.
Struggle to find the energy to get dressed,
Leave the house, 7:30 am and I'm already stressed,
Everyday the same, exhausting and boring,
No-one to go to talk to, no-one to laugh with,
Never been more lonely, no-one can see,
And reach to me, help me out of this dark, lonely hole.
I never eat, my stomach's always churning,
Food doesn't satisfy the constant yearning,
Of my heart for love, nor the ceaseless tumbling,
Of thoughts in my mind, thoughts no-one hears,
Because no-one is around to listen to all my fears,
And reach to me, help me out of this dark, lonely hole.
Beneath my smiles lie reservoirs of tears,
The dams struggling to keep them in,
More cracks appearing daily, pressure building up,
So much energy is needed to do the tiniest things,
Energy I don't have, with no-one to lean on,
And reach to me, help me out of this dark, lonely hole.

and just as the morning
starts to slowly drip
through

Silently in sorrow
this poet stood
among voices of praise
Fame seemed meaningless,
deafeni ng the pencil
blown away,
by Josh Andrews
So...
When the clouds rain down there sorrow relentlessly
I find my umbrella too small, my jacket too light
Uncertainty
It's an emotion that will cover your entire will
Continually making life a very bitter pill
Slowly creeping in it will cloud
by Jayne Scott
Run and hide,
all feelings inside,
hurt can only begin
when you let people in.
Dream of tomorrow,
a day stripped of sorrow,
