CRY CRY BABY

Nights spent in shallowed ground

Happiness swallowed

Symbols confusing

Signs luminous

Holding it all in as the wildfire burns

Knowing each day brings strength in weakness or so it appears

The outside of me smiling high fiving going on

All along the inside dying

Witnessing the skeletal remains of the real me

Crying into the pillow top of my pedestal

Hiding my dismal destiny of despair

Not embracing the positivity of a lost self

Hitting the interior wall of lucidity

In the silence I dance

In the silence I sing

Cry cry baby

Let the childlike emotion in

Be the adult in business the child in play

Let go of the inhibitions that hide within me

Walking into the mirror and seeing the person who loves me for me.
