wish
I wish I could say that I am happy when I see others smiling and laughing
I wish I could say that I am filled with joy when talking about my mind set
I wish I could say that I am overwhelmed with happiness when my mother is
brought up, But i am not
I get this unwanted anger when I hear about my mother, I get annoyed when
People make it obvious when they hear my how fake my laugh sounds,
I hate how no matter how much I cover up my ears I still hear these voices
I wish I was able to talk to others without shaking because its too much for
my anxiety. I wish I was brave enough to tell people how I feel
I wish i was able to look at pictures of me without wanting to disappear
I wish I was able to love myself.
But it's hard to do when those who are closest to you can’t even love you
I wish I could stop these voices
I wish i could smile and mean it
In the end I only wishing, unable to fix this broken machine
Still wishing
