Longing For Peace

What is this weight, upon my chest I feel? Is it worries trapped inside my mind, or is it real I gasp for air, but feel that there is nothing left for me The weight I feel upon my chest I can not touch or see It feels of heavy burden, painful loss and memories As if I’m sitting in a boat alone in darkened seas Surrounded by the darkness, and the air is thick and tight I feel as if I’m standing still, though I row with all my might I pray for God to clear the air, and show me that there’s light But this prayer, has gone unheard, and my heart is full of fright What do I do, where do I turn, there is no help for me This is something I must endure, be brave until I’m free The pain I feel, it just gets worse, and I feel I can not stand What should I do, I try to move, but it’s as if I’m in quick sand My mind has lost all reason; it’s as if there’s nothing there My heart feels all the pressure, and it’s more than it can bear I’m trapped inside a darkened space, that’s full of worry and despair I’m weighed down with all my thoughts, and I don’t really want to share I know that this is something that I will get through one day But until then I’m trapped inside this mind so far away.
