Hurt (2) Poem by Allysyn Bryant

Not knowing whats wrong but knowing it hurts
From the dawn til Dusk, my heart aches
Standing on the beach, my tears escape me
Turning my fear into strength, it's getting too hard
What Will I do, when you finally leave me?

Standing here by myself, my past demons haunt me
Future dreams slip through my fingers
My family is sick and needing me, all I do is hurt
Am I failing at what is most important?
Is it selfish of me to want one, just one day, to be able to be myself?
