There's cracks in the foundations of my mind
Now every structure is compromised
And I lie and say I'm alright
But my can of worms has snakes inside
So I keep the lid closed
And seal my lips so
So my loved ones do not know
I'll be the keeper of their happiness
And prolong their blissful ignorance
Of the cracks in the foundations of my mind
โฅ๏ธ oof I know this
I couldn't help making a verse. Spoilered in case that's rude but you made me cry and think how it's a bit different for me now
Some cracks close quietly after so many nights
Some cracks lie until a single flower takes hold
Bright yellow in the dark.
Some cracks I tend tirelessly
Filling in with gold so they SHINE BABY SHINE.
Some cracks stay, deeper then ever
Snakes give way to dragons
None shall pass, not even you, child
We will hold and fight, and remember.
Quiet now, I know how to tread, where to avoid
The scars in the foundation of my mind
It's not rude! It's beautiful! Thank you for sharing, truly and sincerely! Big hugs and good vibes! ๐๐๐
