Suicidal Thoughts

Every day i smile

to hide every emotiion and all the pain 

i suffer through everyday

I keep everything bottled up

I dont let anyone know what im thinking

Im tired of everyone saying

Everything will be fine

I just want to give up and die

I know that no one really cares

Because if you cared you would look right into my eyes and know that im not alright

You say im always happy

You say im a strong person

But what you dont know

Is that i go home and cry

And wish i would die

Oh boy, here we go again. Ashley, you have too much to live for while you are young. This time, you don't need any corrections made. This is pervasively descriptive.

Ashley, I hope that this is a topic and not your life situation. Depression is a terrible way to live. Keep writing for it can work as theraphy.Sara
