My head is spinning.
The anger is winning.
What does it take,
To get a break?
This world is eating at my soul.
The tears are taking control.
I bite my nails until they bleed.
Relief is what I need.
For once I would like to smile,
Even if it's just for a while.
Give me a break.
Because it's this mess I can't take.
