I Hold The Sun In My Hands

As I wake up each morning

I hold unrelenting darkness in my mind

My heart, filled with exhaust

Beats anxiety through my veins

Loneliness fills my stomach so

I have no space for breakfast

Glaring, hating eyes

They burn holes through my back

With each unwanted breath

I inhale sadness like the sweetest aroma

Each insult and unkind word

None affect me, I've thought them all about myself

My brain is a cruel place to be alone

It tosses me around and slams me down when i'm already at my lowest

But as each though in my mind, beat of my heart,

expand of my lungs, growl of my stomach,

insult and hateful word attack me.

I know I will be okay in the end.

Because I, a beautiful creature, I hold the sun in my hands
