she stood by the ocean,
staring out into the distance,
to see beyond the jet black waves.
a hand came from the ocean,
and without warning,
it pulled her under,
into a war.
this was a war,
and she was fighting it,
there was no tie,
you win,
or you die.
this was a war,
and she was losing herself,
she was screaming,
but no one heard her.
this was a war,
she was in a pitch black ocean,
no one was there to help her swim,
and she had lost herself in the waves.

losing my soul,
waiting for the darkness to swallow me whole.

silence erupts between us,
yet we still have so much to say

these four walls are my prison,
locking me in against my will.
thoughts spiral,
dreaming of what i could do,
but alas freedom is an impossible vision.

my ears close up,
the voices fade into the background.
all i can hear is my thoughts,
they cloud my mind,
make my heart feel heavy.
breathing comes in shaky bursts,
drops of sweat slip out my skin,
i’m unable to grasp control of it.
i want to call out,
scream for anything..anyone,
but not even a single whisper comes,
i’m trapped.

scrolling through the internet,
having the mindset,
that we need to fit society’s expectations.
day by day,
our lives waste away,
as we compare ourselves to others,
trying to change ourselves.

some days are grave,
so you have to be brave.
when hard days arrive,
always remember that you will survive,
do not fray,
for things will be okay.
just keep your head up high,
remember it's okay to cry,
you will make it through this,
finding your way out of the abyss.
think about all of the good things,
the joys they bring,
and i’ll always be here for you,
even when you are blue.
