I Cry

Every night I cry
a few simple tears,
I cry for me,
I cry for my fears.
Every night I lose
a piece of my heart,
a piece of me,
as dreams fall apart.
Every night I feel
an end to my story,
I’m losing me
to this purgatory.
Every night I wonder
if daybreak will come,
if I’ll find me,
if I’ll ever see the sun.
Every night I try
to search for a way,
an answer for me
to live another day.
Every night I discover
I’ve lived a little longer,
I am still me,
Maybe this day I’ll be stronger...
