An Inner Battle
October 6, 2016
They are lost and scared
But, no one has cared
We were wrong
They thought they just didn't belong
They put on a mask
They try to act naturally
It's not an easy task
The change comes gradually
They battle with themselves
A fight no one can win
Face their insecurities
It is such a sin
I wish I could help them
If they would let me in
Into their thoughts of sadness
I wonder how it has been
I hope they win the war against depression
Before their whole world starts to blacken
