I don't know how,
To think aloud,
The thoughts littering my head

I fail to express,
The swirling emotions,
Some things are better left unsaid

I don't understand,
How to pour,
Out the fragments of my mind

The crazy notions,
The masked feelings,
The words I cannot find

I don't know​ how,
To spill the inept,
Blotches of colour inside

I don't know how,
To broadcast the emotions,
That I prefer to hide

I don't know how,
To be an open book,
To flip the pages with ease

I don't know how,
To show you my colours,
As I'm wrapped up in my fears

My heart is broken,
My mind is shattered,
Battered is my soul

As my reflection,
Stares back at me,
I see the girl the world had stole

I was perfect,
I was beautiful,
I was truly me

But then came emotions,
And swirling thoughts,
And I could no longer see

Blinded by the impact,
Of feelings in all,
Not being able to express

What I thought,
What I felt,
My definition of depressed

No one would know me,
For who I am,
And what I can give to the world

No one will know me because I fail to express,
The tattered writings of my soul.

A/N
Hii everyone! Thanks so much for reading WOS and I hope you liked the poem. If you can relate, please don't hesitate to vote and comment :)

This morning I woke up feeling like I needed to change something. I needed something to be different just to make life seem a slight bit more fun and effervescent.
So,why not change the cover for WOS?

I had two AMAZING covers sent in to me by PrettyInsane16 and they're both so beautiful I can't choose between them😍😍
Thank you sosososooso much for them you are the sweetest person alive ❤❤

Thanks for everything!

Love,
