No one will truly know

By Jameela •
I speak through my writing
yet no one hears my silent cries
I try to be strong and not become overcome by my sadness
when I feel there is a war inside me that rips me apart
A war not of this world but of the spirit and a broken heart
I have tried so hard and fought all my life to keep anyone from seeing my pain
Now when I need help......
no one can hear my screams
I cry myself to sleep only to awake crying again
And a voice not strong yet is telling me to take my life
I fear if I don't heal ,it will take control
My mouth is useless because I fear peoples thoughts of me
So I don't dare raise my head and look into there confident eyes
And ask them to help me save my own life
How can I ask such a thing I am nothing and will forever be nothing
That voice is becoming stronger and I am losing my will to fight
Help me, save me from myself
