She is gray outside.
But her heart is blue.
She loves to smile
But she forgot how

He is black outside
But his mind is yellow
He loves to sing
But they tell him he can't

She is white on the outside
But her thoughts are red
She is a genius
And they hate her for it

He is brown outside
But on the inside, he is pink
He loves to dance
But they tell him he is girly for it

We all have our own colors
We are all different on the inside
We are all beautiful
No one is ugly
Discriminating against someone because they look different, sound different, or are less fortunate than you is not funny. It's just mean.

I am not okay
not many can tell.

but the rain will still fall

I walk alone
somewhere far away from my afflictions
Tears drip from my cheeks
Onto the snow.

But the rain will still fall
The snow will melt

I cry myself to sleep.
I think this is all a nightmare.
soon I will wake up.
But I don't

But the rain will still fall
The snow will melt
And the grass will grow

A silent scream
erupts from my lips
I can't take this

But the rain will still fall
The snow will melt
And the grass will grow
The sun will come out

I'm not okay.
My heart
Hurts

But the rain will still fall
The snow will melt
And the grass will grow.
The sun will come out
And I'll get better.

I'll get better.

Everyone says
That it will all be okay
And that everyone will stay
Is that really the way?
I can't do this alone

But what happens
When they take it all for real
You fake a smile you don't feel
Set your resolve like steel
You've got to press on through.

It's come again
I am drowning on my own
I am lost and feel alone
My heart feels cold like stone
I can't do it this time

It was a fluke
How I survived for this long
Pretending to be strong
Just walking on along
Can't do this anymore
More lies, more lies.

My life is agony
A silent scream
Only I can hear

Pain
Sweet
Bitter pain
A heaven of
Screams
A hell of
Bliss

What is this?
Who am I?
What am I doing here?

In this world
I am the antagonist

The evil one
Fighting
For her own gain.

Sweet God help me

I'm drowning again.

I am misplaced
I am a butterfly
In a field of cocoons
I don't belong here.

Don't treat me like I've never been afraid.
Don't treat me like I've never had anxiety
Or been depressed
Or had a panic attack
I've done more than you think
I've felt more than you know
I've shaken harder
With fear
Than you ever have.
To her.

What's wrong, you ask?

Haha

Funny.

Lies, lies, lies
Everywhere.

I've been lied to
So many times
"I'll never leave."
"You're my best friend."
"I'll stop bothering you."
"I hate him."
"I love him."

I don't even know what truth is anymore.
Can't
Trust
Anyone
Anymore.
