What I Hide

My blood I willingly spill onto the page It takes the form of words to engage A written expression of my life's insanity It exposes my darkest truths for all to see Unwilling to admit it's existence to myself Darkest of thoughts I place upon a shelf Behind my smile I've concealed this reality I fear the possibility of my broken mentality Would others not think this to be true If asked for help what would they do It goes unnoticed each time I reach out That someone cares I begin to doubt Hope I once held slowly fades away Deeper into this depression I fall each day Why does no one care enough to see The emptiness I've hidden is killing me Someone to talk with I have not found Paper now keeps me mentally sound With pen in hand I have learned to speak In poetry I have a voice that's unique ChillNPsyco
