Faltering in the rain
I feel it building within,
my emotions
slowly festering
inside;
I fight it.
I don't want to cry
tonight.
I'm on the brink of tears,
every droplet
threatening to fall
shimmers
in the corner
of my eyes;
I shake my head.
I don't want to fall
tonight.
The depths of my heart
struggles to breathe
as the darkness
overpowers me,
despair
begins
to take control;
I fall.
I give in
to the fight.
I drown amidst my tears,
my soul faltering
as I attempt
to breathe,
my emotions
bursting
from the wells
of my heart,
openly I bleed,
crying,
I no longer care;
I cannot fight
anymore.
