I try to write but the words that have been locked inside my head
Desperate to be freed, to be expressed
But the sentences have disappeared
This what a four letter word like meds do to you
My days seem to bleed from one day into the next
As I try to write these words
And as ink connects its self to the page when I think of your name
it weeps through
This is what a four letter word like love do to you
My nights are filled with dread
Every noise, creak, groan
Makes me think there’s monster under my bed
When really it all irrational made up stuff in my head
This is what a four letter word like fear do to you
