Have You Ever?

Here's the thing...
I'm not strong enough. I can't do this. I can't do anything... Not without you.

Have you ever literally felt an ache in your chest when you're heartbroken? Ever constantly had that lump in your throat that you just can't swallow? What about tears, always threatening to fall at any given moment? How about pain seeping through every part of you? Continually hoping that when you fall asleep, you might not wake up? Forever wanting to fill that void, but not being able to? That feeling when nothing seems right, where everything is twisted? The blackness that fills your soul and ice that coats your heart? That constant reminder that you know what you could do to make everything okay, but you can't find it in yourself?

Thing is...
I have. I do. I can't shake this feeling that it's not going to be okay this time, everything is not going to be alright. I need you to tell me it is... Is it?

"Tell me everything will be alright. Walk this way with me into the night. 'Cause you can let it slide, baby just for tonight. Just know that everyone feels broken sometimes."
