i am standin before you trying to fly can you see me

for i am screaming and falling in silent pain

too blind to find i have broken a wing

to hearrtless to care for the endless feeling of shame

i am broken before you can you hear me

ive cried and mouarned for years each day learning to live independandtly

i am praying beneath you

begging god to help you...help me and maybe somehoe help us

i am breaking before you too scared to breathe

too tired to smile so done with trying and hoping one you you might see i have been here the whole time fading away second by second trying to survive in a world that ive learned to stay away

i am dieing beside you slowly falling before myself trying to carry the weight of the world alone

trying to breathe in a pool of sand

trying to swin in a waterless pond

i have vanished before you and all reality

with no one to remember at one time i had a voice

now tell me father

can you see me

i promise you im here
