Check On Your Friends
“Hey how are you?”
I’m really struggling I wish someone knew,
I can barely get out of bed it’s getting bad,
I never knew I could feel this sad,
Every day is a fight against my mind,
the feeling of anger and weakness combined,
I just want to disappear and never return,
I’m so lost and have nowhere to turn,
I could really do with someone to talk to,
But no one would understand what I’m going through,
I feel like a burden if I say how I truly feel,
But I’m terrified to open up it’s unreal,
No one would want to listen anyway,
I might feel different someday,
But for now I will just say to you…
“Yeah I’m good, how are you?”
