That Feeling

julialoveseat • 24 followers

When your face holds a smile
But inside you are frowning
When you feel afloat
But suddenly realize you're drowning
When you're screaming and shouting
But there's no one to hear
When you try to seem strong
While you tremble with fear
When you don't want to stand out
And try hard to blend
When you listen for something;
But all you hear is the wind
When you look for a person
To help piece you together
But the whole world is empty
And full of bad weather
When you fight through the storm
For the hope of tomorrow
And pray it will end this reality called sorrow

I can feel it. I can feel the pressure, the stress, the sadness and the expectations. I can feel it all crawling on me, going deep in my blood, running in my veins.

Block It Out

I'll just go sit on the floor, Hands over my ears, No way in or out. I'll purse my lips, Hold my breath, Hold every last shout. I'll scream inside, Howl and roar, Until I'm without a doubt.

On a low nowhere to go, Going stir crazy only I know. Pressure in my head, dragging me down Emotions in full flight, Losing the anger fight. Appetite on the floor, Want to slam shut the open door.

When your world seems to crash around you and the walls are closing in so that it becomes so difficult to breath, to think, to feel; Your body goes limp how desparately you would like the tears flow...
