The scariest thing of all.

Do you know what it's like
to be scared?
Every day to wonder.



Do you know what it's like
when you fear?
You worry about your thoughts.

Do you know what it's like
to feel this heavy weight?
The burden of depression.

Do you know what it's like
When a thought terrifies you?
So much that you cry.

How could you know
Unless you've experienced the same.
How could you feel?
Unless you know the pain.

I cry
I sigh
I lie
I ask why

But mostly,
I just try
not to die.
