Twice today I have cried,

And either time,

There's been no one to confide,

All the ugly leaking from inside.

You know, I've always been the girl

Who keeps her act together

And never runs from the world

When it spins too fast and hurls

My mind too far into the dark.

I've always kept my act together

But I could never handle storms,

And today I feel the weather,

It tries to break my fragile tether.

There's too much pressure on me,

Barometic or pessimistic, it's too heavy.

Twice today I have cried,

But each and every time,

There's been no one to confide.
