Darkest Nights

I wish some people could see
The way I am at night
When all the dark thoughts surround me
And make me put up a fight
Just to stay alive
For another day
Because every night gets harder
To keep these thoughts away.

Nobody will ever see me
For who I really am
Because the reality of it is
I will always be a sham.
When nobody is looking
The smile disappears,
My mind falls into darkness,
And brings along the fears.
