The Body Speaks, Just Listen!

The body speaks, Pay attention.

Thoughts shout out but no words
to speak,voice stays silent like
a fall so steep.Body stands tough
but heart shows weakness,eyes begin
to burn from many nights which are
sleepless.Ears grow weary of so many
lies, behind the fake smiles is its'
deadliest disguise.

Soul starts to crumble due to the many
things it endures, forced to go through
life without an answer or a cure. Facing
lifes struggles with many wins and losses,
ignorent to the outcome not caring what the
cost is.

Hands aching to get a grip on reality,
begging for the smallest bit of sanity.
Mouth is such a stranger to a genuine
smile, in the pursuit of happiness,
traveling thousands of miles. Heart split
in two over whats right and whats wrong,
its taken so many beatings and still
trys to stand strong. Mind shows resentment
over things it has done,wishing it can change
the past but its too far gone.

Feet wanting to walk backwards and undo
the mistakes, and this time choose wisely
in the path that it takes.Ears want to resist
temptation against the many lies that it hears,
but heart makes it give in due to the cause of fear.

Arms stay empty no hugs to share,they
chose to push away so they stay cold
and bare.Finger tips itch for the slightest
touch, but with no control to show they can
be too rough.

Eyes stare but still struggle to see whats real,
leaving heart confused over what it should feel.
Eyes try to hold back tears that could show raw
emotion, failing, leading mouth to start a loud
commotion.Eyes begin to water with sadness and
regret while mind thinks of promises it should've
kept. Heart slowly breaks due to the lack of love
it feels, so it closes itself off and trys to
internally heal.

The body speaks, just listen..
