I tried looking for words to describe these
But I can’t seem to find any
Talking is somewhat of a barrier
I’m so lost and I don’t know what to do to bring a smile in your face
You find comfort in the world outside
For that l’m sorry
Look at me!
I’m hopeless, broken down are my defences
Talk is hard
Talk is painful
I don’t know what to do!
Tears flow unstopped
The river Jordan is nothing to what I’m going through
I’m emotional every time I’m alone
Thinking back about everything
I act all stupid,
Do everything childish
Yet l finds no joy in what l do
I meant every word l say to you
I’m in it for the long run
My shoes are not that fast
In fact they are rather slow
You five steps ahead of me
And l’ m running as fast as l could
But l can’t seem to reach you
Talk is impossible
But l m trying
I don’t know what goes through that head of yours sometimes
But I’m willing to listen just try me
Scream, shout
Do it all
I will stick around till the end
Talk is gold
It solves all issues
We might not see eye to eye
But talk bridge the gap
Let’s talk and not hide out
Speak your mind and l will do the same
Talk!
Talk!
Talk!
