I Might Be Alright

I don’t know what to write
Or what to say
All that I’m feeling
Tends to get in the way

No one understands
Or can even relate
I can’t seem to write anything meaningful,
Writer’s block, yet another thing I hate

I’m angry one moment
Sad the next
All I want to say
Doesn’t come out in the text

I can’t make up my mind
All the right words I cannot choose
If writing was always a contest
I’d be sure to loose

Emotions and words
Right now they just can’t combine
I even know it,
I’m way out of line

I’m trapped in nothing
Nobody is holding me back
But the feeling to feel
Is what I lack

I’m confusing myself
Everyone near, too
Just trying to explain
Is one thing I cannot do

When I say I’m okay
Just know that’s not how I feel
When I say I’m totally fine
Just know that’s not real

People make promises
Just to be broken
If I had someone to trust
That would be the token

Give me something to feel
Something to write
And maybe, just maybe
I’ll be alright
