seaside im not very good at this but i can sure try.
I walk through the halls My head hung low You stop and ask if “I’m okay” I simply say “I’m fine” and walk away If you saw through the lies you might stop me Yet still I walk on Day after day Lie after lie Smile after smile No one sees me cry They all think I’m fine I’m not fine Inside I’m falling apart And each day you take a new piece of my heart But I swear I’m fine

I’M FINE
I wish you knew my pain How it feels when you push me down and laugh To hate my own existence To feel worthless To wake up and look in the mirror only to be filled with disgust To try to avoid being noticed in order to stay unharmed To avoid getting close in fear of judgment I wish you knew my pain I wish you knew the life I live

I WISH YOU KNEW
as I watch the sink fill with my own blood I can’t help but wonder, what the lives of others would be like without me? they say I'm not the only one I'm hurting when I do this, but I don’t see how. how does it hurt the one that doesn't have to rip open their skin just to sleep at night. to be able to handle the painful memories. to feel alive. to handle living less than a block from the monster that ***** and took advantage of you at such a young age. but who am I to play "woe is me"? there are people with a hell of a lot less than me. and yet I still feel the need to destroy myself. How dare I?
