I lay wide awake wondering why I can never sleep I cry in my room wondering why I can’t be happy anymore I fake a smile wondering when I had to start pretending I stab myself with a needle wondering why I’m still alive I sit clutching my head trying to stop the voices in my head wondering why they are even there I sit up shaking from my nightmare wondering why when I finally sleep that I wake up crying I listen to the question “how are you “and I wonder why I answer with “I’m fine “ But you would never think that those things would happen to me because I’m constantly smiling and saying “I’m fine“
