On the inside and out

Natavia Hobert

On the inside,

 

On the inside I'm hurting, On the inside, I´m crying, On the inside, I´m slowly falling apart, On the inside, I feel as If I can't breathe, On the inside I feel trapped, On the inside I´m begging for help, On the inside I´m begging to be let free, On the inside I´m waiting for a hand to reach in and set me free, On the inside, I feel like my lungs are filling up with water causing me to drown, On the inside I feel as if I´m suffocating, On the inside, I feel as if I´m fading away, On the inside, I feel as though I´m going to collapse at any moment, On the inside, I´m unstable, On the inside, I´m in pain, On the inside, I´m drowning in my sorrows and my worries. 

 

On the inside, no one sees my hurt, On the inside, no one hears my pleads, On the inside no one notices, On the inside no one knows what pain I hide, On the inside, no one knows how I feel, On the inside no one knows how bad it is, On the inside, no one knows how much I´m falling apart each passing day. On the inside, no one knows how much I just want to be loved. On the inside, no one knows how much I just want to be seen. On the inside, no one knows how much I just want to be cared for. On the inside, no one knows what emotions and feelings I try to hide away.

 

On the outside,

 

On the outside, I smile, On the outside, I laugh, On the outside, I look put together, On the outside, I´m kind, On the outside, I´m caring, On the outside, I´m loving,

On the outside, I hide the hurt, On the outside, I hide the worry, On the outside, I hide the confusion, On the outside, I hide the pain, On the outside, I hide the hatred, On the outside, I hide my problems, On the outside, no one knows what I go through, On the outside I hide the real me, On the outside, no one cares to ask me if I’m ok. On the outside, no one sees how I feel, On the outside, everyone sees what they want to see of me, On the outside, no one knows the real me, On the outside, I´m someone not even I truly know. 

 

On the inside and outside, I am two different people. No one will ever know the real me but me. On the inside and outside, I am different and will always be different.
