Pain No More

I tried to be ok.
With things that weren't right.
I tried to be fine.
But I cried myself to sleep at night.

I tried to heal myself.
But the pain overcame me.
The sorrow overwhelmed my brain.
The constant lightning strike on my heart.

Oh no, not this again.
Not the empty vessel in my stomach.
I want to feel the world again.
I want to stand tall under the blue sky.

I cried so much.
I cried more and more.
I want to feel something again.
Please let me feel something again.

No more sorrow.
No more pain.
No more tears.
I want to feel higher again.
