Heartache

Holding on with every bit of strength

I try to hold back the tears in my eyes

Attempting to relieve the pain

But the cracks in my heart somehow seep through

Causing my walls to burst

Causing my emotions to explode

In frantic worry

Trying to shut everything down

Like a clock

You can’t stop time

You can’t stop the future

You can only live for the moment

And try with every bit of courage in your heart to stop
