Title- untitledI tried to talk to you the other day, you / seemed distant and mind astray, so I / faded away.

Speak Up"What's wrong?" She asks. Spoken simply, for its a simple thing to say. I didn't get much sleep last night. My brain was putting up a fight. Tossing and turning for hours on end, pretending to be unaware of the sun peaking over the horizon. / I haven't had much of an appetite. Sure I attempt to eat what I'm able, but it never sits well. I may ***** it up but time will tell. / My thoughts move too fast, sometimes I forget when to laugh. It's hard to know how much is real cuz everyone thinks it's an act. But it's real, everything I feel in my head and my heart, and the whispers and the shouts, reality fading and freaking me out.

Drag Me Into The DarkToday he came again, seeping into my thoughts. / He says he is my friend, but always shuts off the lights. / He lives in the darkness, wears it as a cloak that trails behind him.

Another BreakDarkened by love's light dying. / Withered by the storms in my head. / Feelings of what is no longer the same.

Mental IllnessMy depression tells me I'm not wanted / My ADHD tells me to go find someone who will want me because sitting here won't change anything / My anxiety tells me to hide from anyone who might want to talk to me

Red InkI scream into this piece of paper, / Vomiting up ink that seeps in, / But no one hears the pain of the silenced,

Today I die, again.Woke up, / Tripped down, / Scrapped my knee on the way to the ground,

**** rhymesI'm tired of trying to rhyme / Expired of the idea, / Dying from the expectation,
