Arms Wide

Wake up, life is good yet some how you still feel removed.
Can’t put your finger on why you don’t feel right.
Sun is shining but your light doesn’t shine so bright.
Is this a phase or a sign that should been heeded?
Either way answers are definitely needed.

Gaze in the mirror looking for solutions of what you can’t say.
Tomorrow is here and its perhaps a better day.
Or are these feelings you are forcing to the fore?
While running mental circles that have you doubting more.
Triggers hidden just beneath the surface.

Everyone needs a friend.
A person to confide in.
Yet sometimes talking just won’t do.
That is when a hug should be what you offer them too.

Damage is past which is why it always hurts so much.
No matter time passed it doesn’t what was done.
Pain lessens but never the memories when thinking.
So we try not to dwell on what events did occur.
Otherwise sadness will grip forever.

And who wants that when they wish to smile?
No ones the answer and so we ignore the pile.
These emotions that keep mounting until we can take no more.
Then ready or not they are coming out all raw.
Tearing us up until that bout is spent completely.

Everyone needs a friend.
A person to confide in.
Yet sometimes talking just won’t do.
That is when a hug should be what you offer them too.
