Silent Desperation
October 9, 2014
Most days its hard for me to speak.
I choke on screams of silence when youre there.
Its my own fault you turn your cheek,
When i decieve you with contentment in my stare.

I wrote this in the midst of a deep depression. It briefly explores how difficult it was for me to talk about the way i was feeling. It seemed easier to put on a mask and act like i was fine, rather than talk about it. It all stemmed from a feeling of worthlessness. I had so much to say, i just felt like no one would care or that i would become a burden to them.
