Too many thoughts in my head
Anxiety way too high
Too much stress
To the point I cry
Hide in my room
Until the end of the day
Just hoping that
Everything’ll be okay
Blame myself for things
That aren’t my fault
Feeling guilty and bringing
My happiness to a halt
Everyone else has problems
So I put on a fake smile
I just hope they don’t notice
Cause I’ve been doing it for a while
I hold back the tears
And hope no one’ll see
I try to hide the pain
To hide the real me
The one that doesn’t
Want to get out of bed
The one that has
Too many thoughts in their head
The me that deals with
Anxiety and depression
And just trying to deal
With all this tension
Dealing with toxic parenting
For most of my life
And hoping that there
Is a better afterlife
But if there isn’t
That’ll be okay
I just hope that
I find happiness one day
I know that everyone else
Struggles with sadness and fear
So if anyone needs to talk
I’ll do my best to be here

Very strong emotive write Panangel. You are strong within yourself as your words show, that strength will pull you out of your sadness and fear and take you into a wonderful life if you can find somebody to listen to you, there are such people out their, they are called good friends.

I am in your boat
I am the happy and bubbly girl that hides a lot like you do.
You are not alone
We are not alone.
Our boat will dock one day onto a sunny island.
Great poem 😊
