This is a poem I wrote the other day and it's not good but I tried and to me it's quite deep and emotional

I am scared,
Of the creatures that lurk in the shadows,
Monsters.
If you want to find them,
Do not check under my bed,
Check inside of my head.
That's where they linger,
Never going away, always telling me how to act,
Or what to say.
I'm terrified.
Of my monsters,
Terrified that they will push away the ones I love,
Terrified they will hold me captive,
Enclosing me like a hand in a glove.
They made me build walls,
So I couldn't escape their hold,
They made me lose contact with the outside world,
Leaving me to my thoughts,
All I ever wanted,
Was to be free,
To be able to spread my wings and finally be me.
They lured me in,
Tricking me,
Letting me think it was normal,
Allowing me to think I was normal.
It turned out I was far from it.
I was scared and insecure.
I was falling deeper and deeper into a bottomless pit.
I was trapped,
I was being held hostage,
Inside my head,
I couldn't escape myself.
I wasn't permitting myself to roam,
To fly,
To explore,
I was trapping myself behind a bolted door.
I wasn't letting anybody in,
Nobody saw my suffering,
My sanity was slowly caving in on me.
I was loosing my mind.
My space was filling with pain infested water,
It was too full to breathe,
And you can only hold your breath for so long,
My lungs were battling with my heart,
And they were loosing.
I was slowly drowning and nobody knew,
Simply because I didn't let them.
At least now, I can finally fly!
