Going Through: Poem by Kimber Lee Iacona

Pictures fade from the light as I finally start to close my eyes
All the scars from the rain are finally starting to show through
Never a moment too soon, not a moment too late
I find myself lost in all of the confusion that shields me from the outside world

Never a dull moment....it never seems to be enough
Just when I thought it was getting better
Everything comes crashing down on me again

People don't understand the dilemma that I seem to be in
Time never seems to be enough for anyone
Why do I tire of feeling like I'm completely worthless
Insomnia seaps in once again
A little too late and a little too much to deal with all the stress that seems
to keep piling up like textbooks on a rainy night

Spoken words that I regret
Too many thoughts ponder my mind
No one knows how hard it is to contain the feelings that make it hard to breathe
Caught up in all the madness that surrounds me
no matter where I seem to go

Hiding my tears from everyone that cares
because I don't think they would understand the pain that I'm going through.
