Writing My Sadness Away

I am sad today.
As I am every day.
I put on my makeup, brush away the tears
And pretend I am here.
But really I am trapped inside.
I'm caught in an eternal night,
With the darkness, sucking the life from me
I need someone, anyone, but no one can hear me
When I can't even speak, can't even breathe.
I'm hearing voices screaming in my head
Telling me I am alone, telling me I am dead...

But I have life me yet.

I just always seem to forget
How the voices are lying
Yes, I'm dying,
But I'm not a lost cause,
Even though I'm feeling lost.
So tomorrow is a new day
And I will write my sadness away.
