Why Is Everything So Unclear

“Why is everything so unclear?”

I try to see through the fog

Of this world that is so unclear

I don’t know if it’s just my fear

Or the tears that streak down my face

No one ever sees the pain

Because inside it stays

My voice is but a whisper

Of what I feel inside

I lay awake

Feeling so incomplete

My heart feels empty

Before the shadow

Of what isn’t seen

It’s hard to see through

The mist of my world

I reach out

To touch what isn’t there

And hold onto the memories

That are unclear
