Broken Girl

Anger in the air, no other breath I can take. Masks of people we want to be, we are all fake, But nobody hears me when I fall and shout, They don't hear the words tearing me out. Broken is my heart, it's full of all this pain, Still I keep it open to be stabbed once again. Why do I put myself through this torture called life? Sometimes I just wish I could end my strife. Just take a deep breath, relax let it all go, Before I fall even deeper into the darkness to wallow. The problems run to deep, I don't want to lie, I don't want to give them one more reason to cry. I close my eyes as I fall to the ground, Tears staining my face I make no sound. I curl up in a ball and tell myself I'm okay. Clinging to my body, as I try to wish it all away. I wipe the tears from my eyes; I want to be strong, Because they are just memories, nothing's really wrong. Mentally I prepare myself for the day, Knowing that this is the only way.
