I hide, behind closed doors.

 

What can I do?  I'm so tired.

I don't feel like getting up.

I don't want to be seen like this.

I hide my true feelings at work.

I just plain hide when I'm at home.

In my bedroom, under the covers.

I don't want to be seen like this...

                by my family or my friends.

So I hide behind closed doors.

                                I can't turn off my mind.

                                Thoughts run around, I don't care to see.

                                They hurt me, break me, make me cry.

                                I don't know what's worse...

                                Thinking how others must think of me...

                                Or the thoughts I have to listen to in my head.

I'm worried about what can be done.

I feel worthless, and wish I were dead.

I doubt that anyone could come back from this,

I'm at rock bottom, can't go any lower.

There has to be an up, but I can't find it.
