depression
anxiety
worthless
damn im such a mess
actin like were friends
nah i just put my fake face on
a 24 hour smile
through my highs and lows
life's beating my down but i still smile with each blow
controlling the anger inside, it just that the pain and anger keeps on growing
the word come out my mouth, "im fine".... "im okay"
dont worry i know you know i'm lying
deep down we all know im dying
my life flying by, i spend these long nights crying
just waiting for the time i die

Powerful
thank you
Nice write. I encourage you think about pairing these cathartic writes with another that teaches toward optimism. It’ll help me keep from worrying about my friend ???
sure thing
You’re getting really good. Student quickly outgrowing the master , Gradshopper.
trust me your a good teachers. it took me awhile to understand how to make my poems less literal. when you told me "If a great writer describes w style how a woman is dressed then we can use that as a roadmap to describe the attire of a man. None of the words are the same but learning to honor an elevated technique is your goal" something clicked. i made everything you were telling me make sense
I lucked out then
