Today was such a happy day

But what I don't understand

Is how come

After the smiles

And the laughs

All I felt

Was empty inside

Knowing that

The smiles were fake

The laughs were fake

I was fake.

If today

Was a happy day

Then why

The moment I come home

Did I feel so depressed

And hopeless

Having the urge

To slice my skin

When I actually had a good day.

Why did I have the need

To cry

And make myself throw up

If today

Was such a happy day

Full of hugs

And smiles

And laughs

And goodbyes

Then why when I come home

I want to be dead?

If today was such a happy day

Then why do I have the urge

To make it

My last day on earth?

If today

Was such a happy day

Then why

Am I depressed again

I thought for just a day

I could forget

The voices and the feelings

Of hopelessness

And not want to die

For at least one day

Well I guess I was wrong.
