Heart Sickness

Whispered winds through an empty porch swing

Lost in shadows, memories sting

Came into this world, just a small fragile voice

Thought maybe love, could be my only choice

But the silence grew louder, when I needed someone near

Felt like I was drowning, drowning in my fear

All I wanted was a little belief

A hand to hold, a voice to comfort me

Now I stand here, heart heavy like stone

Wondering if I was ever truly known

Oh, this heartache, cuts so deep

Feels like nobody notices when I weep

I was crying out in the dark, all alone

Thinking maybe someday I’d find my way home

No one ever believed, I was worth the fight

Just a ghost, fading into the night

Oh, the aching feelings, they never cease

Living with this heart sickness, longing for peace

Tried to wear a brave face, hide all the pain

But the tears kept falling, like a relentless rain

Lost in the crowd, invisible, unseen

Longing for a love that might have been

All I wanted was a little belief

A hand to hold, a voice to comfort me

Now I stand here, heart heavy like stone

Wondering if I was ever truly known

Oh, this heartache, cuts so deep

Feels like nobody notices when I weep

I was crying out in the dark, all alone

Thinking maybe someday I’d find my way home

No one ever believed, I was worth the fight

Just a ghost, fading into the night

Oh, the aching feelings, they never cease

Living with this heart sickness, longing for peace

Hope flickers faint, like a dying flame

But I keep walking, calling out your name

Maybe someday, someone will see

The broken heart, the real me

So I’ll keep scars as proof I survived

Hoping someday, I’ll find a place to thrive

Living with this heart sickness, yearning to heal

Waiting for the truth, and how I’ll feel
