Mental Claustrophobia

I feel the world caving in.

I’m getting claustrophobic.

I cannot breathe and you’re doing just fine without me.

I cannot sleep.

Days turn to blurs and I feel weak.

You’re getting over me.

While I lie awake, cause I’m afraid to dream.

Cause you always appear inside my head.

I remember everything you said.

“Baby I love you.
Baby I’m sorry.
I will always care for you, no matter what you do.”

Your words were never true.

I saw the worst of you.

You never mention that part, or the fact that you broke my heart.

I’m forced to play this part, like I am just fine.

You’re doing great.

My smile is fake.

Not sure how much more I can take.

Somebody help me ease the ache in my soul.

My heart will never be whole again.
