Reduced to writing my thoughts

Too introverted to voice them

After letting myself fall

Into a slump

I can't help but keep to myself

My opinion only results in raised voices

And air that's so thick with tension

It's hard to breathe

Overwhelmed by my surroundings

I'm not sure what to think; whose side do I take?

Where is the simple right or wrong?

Where is the way out?

Unanswered, I can only move forward

And continue to watch

Helpless

As my world crumbles

As her heart is repeatedly shattered

As her legs buckle under pressure

As his mind is shadowed with dark thoughts

As I continue to watch

Helpless
