Sometimes the soul bleeds when no one is looking
No matter how hard you try to convince everyone else that you're actually okay...
You're not fooling yourself one bit because forcing that false 'I'm fine' belief is fruitless
Deep down inside you know that as soon as the blinds close
The black hole is going suck you in even further
Some days are worse than others because even nothing at all can trigger the misery to come crashing down upon you
And it's hard to tell your best friends how lonely you feel without hurting them
It's shameful to admit to your family you feel helpless and unloved despite their best efforts to support you
Words simply fail at trying to paint the whole picture
Each step is unbearable and waking up in the morning is hell
It gets harder and harder to fake a smile in public as the days pass by, mocking
Without even realizing it tears will flood your cheeks at complete random
Trying to explain them without giving anything away is almost impossible
Take a close look in the mirror and stare in horror
This is what you have become.
Free verse, no set rhythm or structure, not meant to rhyme.

This is the first... stanza -.- The rest is too personal.
