Chapter 9
Despair
The Words I Speak
The life I have is falling apart
Crying silently in the background
No one notices the tears in my eyes
No one sees what's behind the disguise
"Get over it" as if it's that simple
"You're overreacting" "You're too emotional"
Emptiness is what I feel inside
Haunting thoughts are all over my mind
Anxiety making its way to the core of my bones
I can hear the sirens and the horns
My body's fatigued and I'm losing control
I can't see what's right in front of me at all
It's tiresome to live in this indefinite cycle
You have no clue, it's unbearable
My feelings are all over the place
I don't even know my own face
Hope is no longer in my vocabulary
Faith is nonexistent in actuality
