unbecoming
your sadness is showing,
put it away.
no one wants to see
your depression today.
it's not time for that,
some might say,
its so unbecoming
to act that way.
your anxiety is showing,
tuck it in.
the world shows no interest
in what's under your skin.
take a deep breath,
that's where you begin,
or, that's what they say
with a pat and a grin.
your illness is showing,
keep it away.
no one is interested
in that anyway.
but by letting it fester,
and by letting it stay,
it might make me
disappear some day.
