How can I explain my mind to you?
in a way that you understand
How can I tell you
about the voice in my head saying i'm not good enough
or how about the people behind me whispering about me
How can I explain
that it is so hard to get out of bed everyday
it's hard to have the motivation to look both ways to cross the street
how do I say
how fat I am and how the voice in my head makes me starve myself
and tell me I am too fat to be pretty or important
how do I tell you that I can't open a door or speak
in fear of making a fool of myself
how do I tell you
that I can't breathe
It's so hard to breathe
how do I say
that I want to die
and I care about everything
but I have no motivation to do anything about it
so no I can't just go out in public and have fun
I can't stop looking around
I can't just eat
I can't just get out of bed
I can't just do what everyone else can
because the voices in my head won't let me.
