Crying Silently Pt 2

Crying silently so that no one hear
The pain and fear
There right next to me they fail to see
Teardrops falling down my cheeks
Should I wear a sign? 
PLEASE HELP ME 
I’m drowning in my own misery
The mental thoughts I have created 
have now conquered me 
Every one seems to have become a reality
Preposterous imagery of life slipping away 
With no one to save me internally
My soul is fighting to break free of this mental instability
While physically I’m crying
Still, again, Crying Silently

I've really been enjoying your poem and the emotions and imagery were so vivid that i could easily picture them as beautiful illustration. I'm a commission-based manga/webtoon artist, and I'd love to help bring your story to life if you're ever interested. Feel free to reach out at gm@il : akiracomicart2@ or on inst@ akiraa_artly

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
