I can't get up

This is dedicated to a dear friend of mine, You know who your are(if you see this)

I can't get up

I am trapped in this dark space

My anxieties

weighing me down

I am afraid I will drown

Making no sound

They ignore me

I cannot rise

from this blackened ground

Yet, I do Physically

I look fine

a shell of perfection

On the inside though

I writhe in agony

Why cant they see?

Why wont the Listen?

Can they see I am drowning?

Do they know that I yearn to find normalcy?

I want to be Okay

I NEED to be okay

People think that I am fine

They want me to hold them up

I am their cradle

keeping them form falling apart

Who will hold me?

I can't get up
