Why Cant I Be Happy Poem by alexandra hicks

why cant i be happy?
why must i experience pain?
will i ever beable to feel
im tired of being alone
and not expressing how i feel
is anyone ready to listen?
sit down and hear the real deal
im tired of holding in my tears
and saving them all for the night
the tears are burning me inside
when can i stop this fight?
im reaching out my hand
hoping youll lend yours to me
are you open to heeling my heart
cause im ready to set myself free
