Eye of the Storm
What am I supposed to do
as chaos swirls around me?
Pieces of my heart are falling
like raindrops around my feet.
Nothing's going right;
I'm being left behind yet again.
I can see myself strike,
lash out,
make the world feel
what I feel inside,
but I don't feel better.
Pushing out,
I try to break free,
until we're all broken
and bleeding our hearts out.
Everything around me
is shattered, jagged, destroyed.
I am the eye of the storm,
a sudden calm,
perfectly imperfect.
I am wild,
loud,
free.
I open my eyes,
and you're still here.
You're always here.
Please don't leave me.
