The world is Dark, Through my eyes
People are Liars, Telling their lies
Friends are Fake, No one is real
Everyone’s a Thief, Getting ready to steal
True Companionship, Through my eyes
Is like a Diamond, A treasured prize
People Look, They laugh a lot
My face a Tomato, Hands sweaty and hot
Giggling is Loud, Through my ears
Behind me Whispers, Black mirroring tears
I Tremble, Inside so silly and weak
To everyone Outside, I’m just some freak
Everyone Else, Through my ears
Are the physical image of all my fears
Their talking is Loud, Secrets silent
Inside Demons, Lethal and violent
The weight of the World, On my back
Makes the World seem so pitch black
The grades on my tests are always the worst
I feel so Ashamed, I’m about to burst
The pure tense Pressure, On my back
Feels like I’ll soon have a panic attack
Too many People, My heart starts to race
I need to find my own Safe, Personal space
I know that I’m Different, But so are you
We all have days when we are feeling blue
Issues are Common, They’re really nothing new
So if you help Me, Then we’ll both get through
All of our poems are about very real topics: eating disorders, anxiety, loneliness, animal abuse and much more
