Outside In

outside me 
the tears won't stop, they continue to flow
past my cheeks
that are on fire because of the depression
which causes me to question
every thought that comes inside my head
 
make them stop oh please just stop
stop hurting me
i just want to give up
feeling this way
too many horrible thoughts
inside my head, inside my heart, just 
inside me
