Break Free

Wish I could just break free,

Burning chains inside of me.

PTSD won't let me breathe,

Insomnia won’t let me sleep.

Having unwanted dreams,

Feeling different, losing my esteem.

My thoughts go crazy,

Please just let me be.

Mum, I miss you,

This is hard to do.

I still hate my past,

Cover my face, this is my mask.

Trying to find my way,

Through the pain every day.

Let me heal, let me see,

A tomorrow that’s free.

In this silence, I am bound.

But I hold on to hope,

Trying to cope.

Every scar, every tear,

Close my eye's feel that fear.

What does this mean?

I'm still learning,

In my heart, I’m still hurting.

Family problems,

still concern me.

Lord, don't take me,

Let me finish my journey.

Mum, I miss you,

This is hard to do.

I still hate my past,

Cover my face, this is my mask.

Trying to find my way,

Through the pain every day.

Let me heal, let me see,

A tomorrow that’s free.

Healing’s slow, but I know,

But One day I will grow.

Mum, I remember you,

Control my temper.
