Sorry. Please Don't Worry.

What's it like to foster a monster,

a monster clawing at my chest,

breaking through despite my best

My best to keep at rest,

resting peacefully,

Taking ahold of pieces of me

Driving me insane,

The thought is inane

Dark claws gripping my brain

It's easy hiding a burden

If you just let it turn in,

Turned into a monster,

The monster I foster.


I swear there is nothing wrong with me.

Least nothing y'all can see

Nothing I care much to tell you

And not because there is nothing you can do

It's just not fair to share

The burden I bear

Just help me smile

And I'll try to walk another mile


All you hear is sighing,

But there aren't many tears from crying

Tell you nothing is wrong

Yet, might be gone before long

Is this a call for help

Welp.

Going to say no

Hope you don't miss me when I go.
