chamomile and sunshine

Alone

I walk among many people, yet i am still alone.

I smile and laugh, but it is not my true face.

Even when surrounded by friendly faces, i am still alone.

Not a soul knows of the monster that is lurking inside.

The anger that boils within me

The hurt, the regret.

I want it to stop.

Please make it stop

I keep moving forward to be pushed back

This disease that infects my mind and soul

The imbalance of chemicals

I scream

I shout

I plead for something to end the pain

And yet, i am still alone.
