I wish tears Would fall but I feel nothing at all There’s this dull ache Inside that doesn’t go away Wake up, get ready, eat, Go to school, get home, Finish my homework, eat, Study, shower, sleep, repeat Over and over, weekend comes And goes but I never did seem To get enough sleep The constant questioning if I’m okay finally stopped from All but my parents, everyone Else believed the mask Lost my extrovert and out-going Self falling into the lies that My ‘friends’ and bullies feed me Everything is draining, and I don’t Feel anything apart from tiredness Everyday I pray to be able to feel Something, gain some energy, and To break out of this daily pattern If only I could feel something, Anything other than mentally and Physically tired Bottling everything while keeping The mask on is exhausting I just wish That could yell or cry just something, Anything to save me from Spiraling deeper
