7 days with no swimming makes one weak


Lies can rule your life
They can change everything
Everyone can think you’re okay
Then one day
Youre dead
A victim of suicide
Or more like you have escaped
You have escaped from being judged
From everyone trying to change you
But all of those feelings can be hidden
Masked behind a veil that separates you from everyone else
No one will ask why you wear long sleeves or bracelets
They’ll just think you’re cold or they mean something to you
If you act happy,
Then everyone believes you are
Lies are dangerous
They can kill you
But then they can keep you from the dangers of even worse judgement
Then again…. No one will ask what's wrong and expect an honest answer

This is about how people silently suffer from depression and bullying. I do not mean to raise concern about my mental health. I try to write from the point of view of someone who is facing the issue I try to address in my works.
