Potential
When I breathe
Pain floods my limbs
Then I exhale
The ache worsens
Tears gloss my eyes
Memories play in my head
Troubled words fall out
Now I say "I'm sorry"
Im never heard
Everyone only sees the bad
The blackness in one's heart
That dark pit
Im more than my darkness
My blood is red
My eyes are brown
My future is colorful
Can you see past the cloud?
The lightning; the thunder
To see my prism of light
My colors that beg to shine
Oh, what i would give-
For someone to see me
Beyond my storms
To see my truth
