Sadness

Sometimes it’s too much
Overwhelming
This overbearing sadness
 
Will it remain forever?
Deep inside
Unmovable
 
Longing, deep longing
Clawing its way through me
The sadness suffocating
 
Am I broken?
Or just lost?
Was I ever whole?
Or simply good at pretending?
 
Confidence shaken
Walls up
Trust broken
Overcome with fear
 
Is this how it is?
How I’m meant to be?
Pretending to be OK
Always alone
Always unloved
 
Sometimes it’s too much
This overbearing sadness

Overwhelming
