Drip Drop

If only they knew

People are talking

Though I can't seem to listen

My dark mind is elsewhere

My dark mind is thinking about everything I've failed at today

I'm not good enough

I never will be

But I have to put on a happy face

I don't want people asking questions

Though my tired mind finds it hard to keep smiling

I make jokes about mental illness

Maybe it's because I don't want to face my problems

People joke along with me

If only they knew

If only they knew that all I say

Is actually true
