(Authors Note: Decided to write a poem for my friend, to try and express how she feels sometimes. Many of these words are her own. Hope you enjoy and possibly relate to it. This is one of her favorite songs. Hope you enjoy.)

How do I survive through this?

All the walls are caving in.

So many words to be spoken.

So many tears to be shed.

It feels as if Ive been here before.

I am dying from the inside out.

But theres no way to let it go.

There is just no way to show.

Show how messed up I am inside.

Gladly I smile to hide how much I hurt.

They'll never fully understand.

How dififcult it really is to pretend.

To fake this joy and laughter.

Like everything will be okay in the end.

But its fine, I'll get through the day.

Nothing can stand in my way.

Nothing but myself.

I continue to build up this hate and tears.

So much I become suffocated.

I have been through this before, yes.

And I will survive through every bit of it again.
