As the blackened sky draws nearer,
I can wash away all the lies and
stop pretending.
I can be bare faced.
I don't have to keep up this façade,
That conceals some of the feelings that I have.
I don't have to tell people that I'm not okay,
And wait for their unsure response of how to help.
No expectations need to be fulfilled.
I can let my demons loose inside my safe walls,
And
No one can question it because
They don't know what lurks inside my head.
To others I seem like I have it all together,
But,
Really I'm a mess at times.
I don't want anyone to worry
Or
To feel like they have to help because
I am truly the only one that can slay my personal devil.
Everyone is fighting a battle
You know nothing about,
Beware and
Don't scare.
