I cannot swim this deep.
Having to be so strong for so long
Only for the people to see
But behind closed doors I melt
I melt like an ice cube in the sun
The tears gripping my face as they run down my cheeks
They bring me relief
... but for just a moment
Until I realize I'm unhappy
Disappointment, pain, and grief cover me like a bride's veil
It is so hard for me to breathe
I’m drowning in this agony
When will this veil be lifted
When will I be free
When will happiness live within me
