I have a loving family

I live in a nice house

I go to a good school

I have wonderful friends

I have a good life

I say in my head

As I try to push away the memories

I repeat it over and over again

Like a mantra to banish the pain

All it does is lock it away

Deep

Deep inside

Condenses it

And tucks it away

Like a dense little black marble

That weighs tons

Placed at the center of my heart

When pain comes up

I just repeat my mantra

I have a good life

It doesn't even matter if it's true

It's all I can do to tuck away the pain

So I sit here typing

Repeating my mantra inside my head
