Let Me Breath

By Tara

It’s okay to be unhappy
It’s okay to crash and break dawn
It’s okay to cry every night
It’s okay to fall dawn everytime
Oh…. it’s okay, not to be okay.

It’s okay that I can’t educate myself
It’s okay that I can’t follow my dream,
what I want to do
what my heart desires
It’s okay that I can’t show my talent,
what I have for the world
It’s okay to lock
Oh… it’s okay, not to be okay.

It’s okay that I lost my parents
It’s okay that I lost my siblings
It’s okay that I am alone
It’s okay that I lost my baby
It’s okay that I lost my virginity
It’s okay that I lost everything
Oh…. it’s okay, not to be okay.

Oh…. I am breathing
but I am a dead inside.
Now all I can do is fixing
all broken pieces of my heart.

I am crying not because
You left me with nothing,
with nothing at all
Oh… I am crying because
Still it’s not enough for you
Still not enough for you
Oh… I am crying
I am shouting,
I am screaming
for peace,
for the rights
but no one listens to me
still no one listens to me.

I am not asking for jewellery
I am not asking for money
I am not asking for vanity

All I I want is to survive.
All I want is to breath well.
Is that too much for you?
Am I asking too much from you?
Oh… let me breath
Let me breath
Just let me breath.
