I didn't want to scare you
So I fastened on a mask
Now it's murdered me

I'm trapped in my own mind
Consumed by this farce
What else can I be?

I want to scream,
To say what's going on
Confide in you, my friends.

Yet I'm locked behind a wall
Not knowing what is wrong
This torment never ends!

Exterior shattered
Nothing underneath
Just a shell

It only starts again
My underrated hell
What is it that remains?
...I guess you could say I'm not alright.

~~sort of dedicated to a friend online~~

sometimes truth can be rather disturbing or even horrifying, but it's better than to deny... at least that's what I think.
so it's 'okay' that you're 'not alright' as long as you know it, because knowing is the first step to improvement, right?

I really like this :)
