The Storm Inside Me Poem by Soraya Garcia

I want to cry yet I can't let a tear out of my tired eyes
I want to speak my mind and just say how I really feel yet I can't
my mouth only utters no
when in fact I want to say yes

I am in dispair and desperate need to let go and be myself
but no, I can't let that happen as that is not who I am suppose to be
my heart is saying one thing while my mind is saying another
I am being pulled from different directions with no clear path

oh how I wish I can surrender to my feelings
oh how I wish for one day I can be myself

yet, the storm inside me keeps pulling me away
from the one I yearn
the clear sky seems so far away
unreachable at times!
