I say, "They are just thoughts — they will go away." But these thoughts yell louder than my words , Sometimes it feels like my brain will explode. Depression is living with a dead inner being, Dragging my lifeless body day by day— Too many sleepless nights , My mind fighting demons. I am afraid of who I've become. Afraid to light a dark room, To face a mirror — Because mirrors don't lie. It's funny how I look happy outside While I'm breaking inside, Each breath  heavier than the last. Depression is like a death sentence. It's really hard to leave my bed. Sometimes I think the world Would be better without me, Because I don't really matter. I'm tired of pretending I'm fine, Tired of faking smiles, Tired of answering "I'm okay" When the truth is — I'm not.

Behind the smiles
Woke up in the morning Standing in front of mirror Staring at my self Giving smile to my tired face A smile with lots of mysteries Deep down in my head A girl standing here She's broken in pieces by the pain , Her emotions faded away She's wearing the smile Hiding her tired face and Covering the tears She's surrounded by the sorrow, confusion and the lies Still she's wearing the smile and Hiding her tired face She's dealing with anomous feelings, poetry is trying to healing She has no one to listen her Complains She has no one to share memories She has no one to love She has no one to make her laugh She has no one to treat her good She's jugged by everyone She's being joke by everyone Still she's wearing the smile And hiding her tired face All she has a mirror whom she look and talk with self And the poetry her way of healing And her mysterious smile to cover up everything...
