The hurting inside my body Like a tornado that rampaged Through my mind Everything is broken And I don't even know What to fix. I'm not broken enough On the outside For people to ask what's wrong, Or offer help. Maybe if I hurt myself more Then people would see That I can't fight off the darkness Any longer So I sit there Silently distancing myself, Watching my friends laugh and smile As I sit in a pit of my own making. Because deep down I know That they don't need me To be happy And deep down I know That if I left right now, Going into the shadows, The shadows that consume my mind, Not a single soul would miss me After a while. So I distance myself from everything And everyone I love Because loving them Is far more strength Than my shattered mind can muster I can't even love myself.
