I acted as if everything was ok I wanted to show everything was fine I wanted to have everything hidden I wanted to keep everything inside I wanted it all to stop I wanted to end the pain I wanted to just bleed so i could start all over again I showed no pain when i wanted to breathe When i was alone, the anxiety strangled me I showed no weakness when i wanted to fight When i was alone, my strength ate me up inside I showed i was happy when i wanted to cry When i was alone, i drowned from my eyes I showed i was calm when i wanted to be angry When i was alone, everything took advantage of me When i was strangled, i couldnt breathe When the strength ate me up inside, i found my weakness and it brought me to my knees On my knees i begged; i was drowning and i couldnt see My eyes were covered it salty water and my lungs wouldnt set me free I wanted to be set free, but i was being taken advantage of, i was lost I became angry and my body suddenly collapsed Everything was not ok Everything was not fine I continued to keep my arms hidden I continued to be quiet inside It hasnt stopped The pain began again I still bleed from the inside out Im scarred and i want it all to end
