Now that you know.
I can’t bear to look at you.
Forcing your pearly whites to appear,
Forcing your hazy foggy eyes to be clear.
I can’t bear to look at you.
Not while I cried for help.
Your mind turns mechanically, going through it’s archives and researching how to solve or rather save me.
I see the exhaustion in your eyes.
I feel the ache in your chest
And I’m reminded that it’s all me.
So I smile, I wear a brand new mask that has no holes or openings for errors.
I under-think and run away from the realization that I can’t escape my depression.
I stare at my anti depressants and refuse to be complacent to its backlashes.
I stare at them and refuse to watch it fully consume and burn me right to ash.
I have a new mask.
Because now you know.
I’ll save us.
Don’t worry about me anymore.
My mask is tighter than ever.
