over flow

... I can only push it down so long Now I'm breaking down Tears fall even though I try to stop them Like holding a lid on a boiling pan That's trying to boil over Hands and arns burnt and blistered But I hold it down It spits and hisses It hurt and it makes things worse But I'm to scared to let go Not here not yet! Keep on holding it down A bubble balloons I'm my chest I can't breathe, I'm holding my breath Untill I reach home or see my mum I finally let go The pot boils over... I break down crieing and I can't stop Loud painfull sobs I've kept it in so long I don't know why or what courses it There's nothing that can help Like a river just let it take its course Untill i go quite it's so exhausting Now all I want is to hug something, Cuddle with my mum hugging me Or lay flat on my ded Till the huming in my head stops
