You would think to be dead inside would mean i don't feel alive, but i do. i just don't feel alive—alive. in the way an emotionally stable person would. that something is holding me captive. like i'm locked in a box without the strength to escape. but i'd tell you i'm really living. going through each day with a smile on my face and lies on my tongue

though i feel as if i'm on the brink. the edge of something significant. of a life i've imagined. a life with less pain. of brighter days and more genuine times—a future i know will one day come with hope . consisting of a stronger self. but every more so compassionate and understanding to my own feelings and others who matter the most to me. but right now, now i feel alone. with these thoughts of darkness because i can't evade this hell i've grown up in.
