I'm sorry


oh hi

how's it going

i'm fine

nevermind

i'm dieing inside

i'm not strong enough

Just too weak

but i'm supposed to be strong

i have to learn how to handle this

but i can't

the darkness

it keeps drawing me in

and i'm scared

People see me so happy outside

but deep down inside

everyone including me

we all have our darkest moments

i have friends and family there with me

they're my light  

but not all of them are there...

when i needed them

they see me as a person who acts strong

but i'm actually weak

i mind only my people

not minding myself

i can't

i can't keep doing this

but it's too late

i lost myself

in the darkness

but i can smile for my family
