It's not that my cry for help is being ignored
I've never had to cry for help before
Don't get me wrong,
Life hasn't been all sunshines
And rainbows
And cuddles
And pillows
And sunlight
There has been grief,
Anxiety,
Stress,
Depression,
Sadness,
Anger,
And guilt.
It's different this time
Life just doesn't feel like life anymore
Food doesn't taste like food anymore
School doesn't come effortlessly anymore
Worries aren't easy to brush off my shoulders anymore
People don't recognize me anymore
I don't know who I am anymore
This is new territory,
For me and everyone around me
They all try their best,
Do their best,
To give me love,
Support,
Hope,
A lifeline.
But without those things coming from within myself I just feel hollow
It's one thing not to be able to help someone you love
It's another thing to not be able to help yourself,
When you don't even know what you need
I'm trying to cry for help,
But I don't know how.
It isn't falling on deaf ears,
The cry itself is silent.
