it doesn't feel like they understand me anymore
i mean they do
to some point
but not enough
not to the point where I'd say you know, you get me, you know what I'm going through
you do completely know how to help me
it feels like i'm crying for help but my voice is strangled into
different questions wanting different answers
then the ones I really want answers to
and sometimes life gets too much
sometimes it's not very livable anymore
and whenever people tell me how "courageous" or "strong" I am for telling them this
i want to scream
i want to shout from the rooftops
"walk a day in my fucking shoes"
just do it
read my mind now and you'd already be in tears
so try a day
and you would not feel the same
just feel the pain
the physical pain that comes from the mental torture.
