I have trouble focusing
In class, at home, everywhere I go
My mind goes blank and I can't think
I can't breath, I stress out
But I don't want anyones help
They can't see me like this, so scared and hopeless
They need to see me happy, see me smiling and laughing
Not crying and screaming
Not the side of me that wants to punch a wall
Just wanting to give up on it all
But I don't want that, I don't want to leave
Because for as many times as I'm sad, I'm also happy
The smile are real, the funny frowns I make are fake
The tears that spill out are from laughter
I actually listen and pay attention
I can breath and am able to think without stressing out
I have the ability to focus
