The road ends here

The road ends here

Here I am—

lost for words,

my thoughts too heavy to breathe.

Everything sounds rough,

like the world forgot how to be gentle.

My heart—

it feels like stone,

carrying weight no one can see.

No matter how hard life hits,

I don’t break,

but I don’t feel whole either.

Inside,

I know the pain I’m carrying—

quiet,

endless,

bleeding through silence.

Now I feel helpless.

I want to heal,

I really do…

but tonight,

it feels like

my road ends here.
