I can keep pretending
Every smile is just a pretty lie
Happiness is fleeting and visits rarely
My heart swells and my throat closes
I can keep saying im fine
Jokes make me laugh and cry and cry some more
It just hurts when you're barely breathing
I am choking on myself
I can be sick until I die
Tired of living and faking my life like its something of worth
I know im nothing and i shouldn't say it
I just cant do this anymore
Im so tired of myself and I'm sick of this feeling
Everyday I want to die, and im crying out for help
The people see me pleading
But it feels as if they watch me on my knees
Praying to a God I dont believe in
Save me

Sweet Nothing
PoetryA small collection of poems written from a dark place in my head.. From the deepest reaches of my soul to the hollow of my heart, on your screen is everything I found the words to express, whether or not it makes any sense at all.
