Coping

I flash a smile,

Kindness fills my eyes, Everyone is fooled,

Into thinking I was nice. 

I speak positively, 

I'm nice to everyone, 

The perfect picture of polite, 

My mind though,

Is full of darkness. 

Evil thoughts plague my mind,

Making me crave things I don't really want.

It confuses me.

I always doubt myself, 

My decisions become questioned,

By no one but me.

Nobody understands my inner struggle,

The war that I wage on myself,

It brings me to tears,

And I can never decide my own path.

My future unknown,

My past a blur,

I'm lost in my own mind, 

Please find me.
