November 21st

 

 Staying strong,

 Like nothing’s wrong

They give up

 I tear myself up

They can’t comprehend

 That I pretend

Words with two meanings

 Hiding my feelings

They form imaginary lines

 Forget your scars, forget mine

I’m broken

 With words left unspoken

I’m shattered

 Like I never mattered

A heart that’s miserable at best

 And with all the rest

These days never get easier

 Being weak and flimsier

I’m all torn open

 Worn and sullen

The hardest part is letting go

 I can’t let it show

I cover up

 That I’m giving up

With painful scars and stares

 Do they care?

Am I empty?

 Drowning in despondency

In the dark now

They know how

To shatter me
