Sometimes, the world crumbles around me.

I'll be fine and then I won't be.

Just like that.

That quickly, my entire life changes.

I become engulfed in this storm raging inside me mind.

I forgot how to smile, how to laugh.

All I know is that I'm not okay.

I'm not okay at all.

All I know is that the pain in my head somehow becomes pain in my body.

My muscles ache and my limbs become weak and heavy.

My mind spinning a thousand thoughts into one single moment of emptiness,

and yet I keep it to myself.

A secret kept to the grave.

Fear takes over and silence ensues.

My struggles are my own, not the cares of others.

Why burden anyone with pointless shit that even I can't make sense of?

So I just lay here.

Alone.

This body is a coffin, and I'm buried alive.
