We can pretend that it will all go alway.

We can lock all the doors 

And tie all the chains.

We can pretend that we have no fear.

And god forbid that the neighbors hear

That this is bringing us down

Right down this street and all over this town.

Knotted up knarls.

Yarn yanked by demons.

And being the laughing stock of all the freemen.

No. 

I think i'll lay low.

Deafen their ears

With lies they don't know.

Keeping me hidden

and just keep pretending.

There is a possible chance

this is never-ending.

When I created this piece I had just broken out of my 6 month depression, and this is truly what it felt like when I went into depression due to bullying and harassment.
