I’m drowning in this deep dark sea
That no one can see but me
I can’t escape this tragedy
Of this weight i must break free
They grab and claw and drag me down
They mutter, disapprove, and frown
My screams don’t seem to make a sound
Seems I’m the crazy in this town
Burdened by invisible weight
Is this forever to be my fate
The stares, the ridicule, the hate
The demons I can’t seem to sate
People walk by without a word
I’m a wreck, they say its absurd
Were my syllables slurred?
I’m dying inside, my pleas unheard.

Very well done. Your message is clear and well written. Sorry you are hurting and can't find solace. Writing helps. Sometimes doing something kind for someone else helps.
Writing this did help calm me down a bit. It often does.
