My Crying Soul

I cry myself to sleep
More often than I should
Won't ever know what's wrong
But often wish I would

It feels like I'm slipping away
Getting further everyday
I want to plead for help
But know no other way
Than expressing me, through poetry
To say what I need to say

So as you read this
Know that it's all real
I am slowly dying inside
That's just the way I feel

I know you do love me
That's not the reason why
When I try to go to sleep
My soul decides to cry
It's never because of you
I feel the way I do

I'm trying to forget
That I feel this way
It's not easy to do
When my scars are here to stay

I no longer see the point
Of living life tomorrow
Why should I bother to try
When my life's filled with sorrow?
I keep on holding on
But it's hard to remain strong

Pain is taking over
Everything I know
Please promise me one thing:
You'll remember me if I go
