They say," Just stop thinking"

How do I explain to the that I can't,

I didn't ask for this,

How do I explain to them that I deserve this?


How do I tell them I don't want to be here,

Without them looking at me like I'm crazy?

Maybe I am crazy,

I'm overthinking again aren't I?

Just when I think I free,

The memories come crashing down again,

And my brain screams ," No your not!"

Maybe I should just end it right?


Inside my head is a very dark place,

There once was happiness and nothing but life,

But now it's filled with dead roses, blood and thorns,

Please don't come any closer,


I don't want to hurt you too,

I don't want another person in my life worrying about me,

Smiling is another way of proving I'm fine,

So they won't be suspicious,


Why do I do this to myself?

I ask myself everyday,

Maybe my mind is just a dark place,

And you should just stay way.
