Sickness

I've never felt so alone
So torn up inside
No safe place to hide
It's exhausting feeling like this all the time
Every smile is so hard to fake
I wonder why I give myself so much hate
So much hate that I feel embarrassed
It's like it never stops but will it stop
That's what scares me
I scare me
These people don't know about anything going on inside
I have to just make them think my mental health is fine
I assure you it's not
I may have just lost the plot
