I do it to myself

The butterflies dying in your stomach
The voices in your head laughing
The heart feeling like steel weighing down your chest
The water leaving your eyes and slowly sliding down your cheek till it hits the floor

I do that

All to myself

Why?

Simply because I can't fight it

The urge to stay in your bed all day
The urge to avoid people
The urge to stay on your phone instead of leaving the house
The urge to punch a wall every time someone does something so little to aggravate you
At times you even forget to eat

I do it to myself because I listen

Everyone says "it'd get better" but when

When will the voices stop yelling at you
When will the mind stop telling you to be scared
When will the body learn to flight instead of fight

Eventually

Eventually the sky will clear and you won't feel heavy

But not now

Now tomorrow

Not the next day

Eventually

When the man watching over you decides you've learned

And until he does you push. As hard as you can.

Because without you what would the world be?

What would the world do

We all have a purpose

Wether it's to deliver mail or collect garbage with the garbage trucks

We all have a purpose, we were put here for a reason and it's left to us to find that reason

Sincerely
