pain

Hidden behind a smile
I'm not okay
I just want to run
Really far away

I cant escape this pain
I'm losing control
I'm going insane

No one understands, nor do they try
To look past these eyes
To see my lonely cries

My family doesn't see it, they just ask from time to time
Ive become accustomed
To having no one by my side

My friend say It'll be okay
How would they know
They don't go through what I do every day

I'm tired of feeling like I have no voice
They all assume I'm fine
I guess I have no choice

I just want to cry sometimes
&& pretend I'm not hurting inside
I rather just say "No, I'm not okay"
Rather than lie and say "I'm fine"

Its like they only see what they want to see
They don't even try to know
The pain is overpowering me

So many nights
Ive thought and questioning this
This game called life

They say things happen for a reason
If so I'm constantly dealt the wrong fate
I always get let down,
Not even a little hesitate

The only way to equal myself with my pain
Is to take as many pills as I can
Over and Over again

1,2,3,4
So out of it
Just popping 15 more

I'm now stuck laying in this bed
Zoning out
Replaying all the lies said

Just wishing they would all try and see
The pain that over powers me.....

Well I can say that I know what your going thru, but sometimes thats not what you need/want to hear. So I will just say that I KNOW...I used to take a lot of pills and just wait for my body and my mind to go numb. I felt that if my mind and body were numb then maybe I wouldn't feel. DIDN'T WORK VERY WELL!

Ive become accustomed
To having no one by my side

That is one of my favorite lines. I too have felt that being alone is the only thing I'm good for. Almost like it will never change. And one thing that I hate most of all is that I HATE being lonely. I'm so afraid that I'll be lonely for the rest of my life. Another line that I really like is:

I just want to cry sometimes
&& pretend I'm not hurting inside
I rather just say "No, I'm not okay"
Rather than lie and say "I'm fine"

Sometimes it feels like its so much easier just to say that your okay. When really all you want to do is break down and tell someone and cry on their shoulder. But then it still feels like they won't understand. Well anyways, this is a really long comment. And I hope that I helped in some way. Good luck with everything! And if you ever need/want to talk let me know. Luvs...
