A bunch of random letters.
Ones you can't understand.

FEAR<LOVE<ANGER<SADNESS<FRUSTRATION

A bunch of random feelings.
Ones I can't understand.

Do you see a difference?
I don't.
All I see is a bunch of random,
No one understands.

I closed the door.
I opened old wounds.
My mistakes left marks.

Bit my tongue,
But only once.
Now I’m left in the dark.

I closed my eyes,
And turned away.
Look at me, I’m covered in scars.

You can fix it,
But you can't forget it.
There will always be something
To make you remember.
You'll always be left with a scar.

I wonder what it’s going to take for you to believe me.

Another sleepless night?
Another cut?
A deep cut. So deep the room screams scarlet.
Or maybe some pills, perhaps a few too many.
Maybe I should die, then you’d definitely notice.
And you’d swear I was always so happy, the life of the party.

But I was broken.

"Are you okay?" They ask.
I think "I don't know. Am I?",
But instead I say "I'm okay."
It doesn't matter if I'm not
Because that's all I'll ever say.

"Are you okay?" They ask.
I force on a smile and nod,
But I'm not okay.
My eyes constantly water,
And my head always pounds,
While my thoughts become dark.

Somehow they can't see it.
See me flinch everytime I move.
Why would they?
I'm excellent at hiding things.

"Are you okay?" They ask.
"I'm okay." Is my reply.
But guess what.
I lied.

We all make our own choices.
We all want different things.
But inside,
We are all the same.

We all hurt.
We all cry.
We all make mistakes.
We all forget.

We've all gotten hurt before
And we've all hurt someone.
We may seem different,
But we all bleed red.
