Space

As I lay here in this cold bed
I begin to float in space
As I cry the warm stars hold me like a blanket
They wipe away my tears
It's so peaceful up here
As I float in space I'm speechless
I'm week tired and alone
I'm exhausted of trying
As I stare into the dark void of space
I begin to feel overwhelmed
As the stars hold me
I become quite
The anger that has built up in me has gone away
The sadness and sorrow I was feeling had left
I lay here emotionless wondering why I was even upset
I lay here wondering why I came here
I being to close my eyes
And the sun comes back around
Once more.
