words have never been enough to convey what's on my mind i'll never tell you what you should pay attention to is the pauses between my fleeting i'm okays and thank you for askings if you listened closely you may have heard my cries there is much said in the unspoken if you looked closely you'd see the red ring around the area just below my elbow i'd fallen asleep at my desk again thinking sobbing- that's something you'd have noticed if you saw the puffiness of my eyes then you'd know i cried this morning too you'd know that my smile was a mere facade and if you'd understood that and if you listened close to my heart's thump then you would have noticed the hum of suicidal thoughts running through my veins coursing through my very being feeding into every cell ringing in my ears like a mantra like a death march
