a moment of vulnerability

There are some things that come easily to me, take for example lying

I lie all the time, I lie how I'm perfectly fine when I'm clearly not

But no one wants to know that, they don't want to hear you bitching

Because to them, you have everything to be grateful for

You don't deserve to be sad, or to cry or to break down

They tell me that I need to be okay...like it's a choice to be okay

And I try, I try so hard to be what people expect of me

I try not to be a burden to anyone, so what do I do?

I hide, play a character that everyone is familiar with

A girl who smiles in front of everyone, she laughs

When she needs to, she's there if you ask her to,

She'll be your go-to person for affirmations and advice.

But don't be fooled by that facade,

because what you see is a totally different story

when the doors of her bedroom are close

You instead see a girl who's broken and scarred

She's having a hard time fighting, everything doesn't make sense anymore

She's tired, exhausted and though she hates to admit it...she's depressed.

She doesn't have the will to keep going, to push through...she just wants to be done.

She wants to be done with all the pain and hurt she had to endure.

She's tired of having to be okay when she's not

SHe's tired of choosing to be okay when all she wants to do is cry her heart out

Each day is getting harder, knowing that it doesn't get better

And though she may be surrounded with amazing people

It all gets too much at some point

Because that girl is me...I am that girl who tries to be okay. They say that I have to be okay but it's not easy as it sounds. I'm not okay, because I don't know why the fuck I'm still sad. I'm constantly met with overwhelming sadness and darkness I try to suppress. This is all gets too much for her and sometimes she just wants to fucking die.
