I am not really here
I am someplace else,
somewhere I cannot be found,
sinking fast
yet no-one can see
the danger that I am in.
I may be standing right by you
but my mind is in a different place.
It is not possible for you to have access
as I cannot provide directions
into the workings of my mind.
You can hear me now
but it is not really my voice which talks,
It's just a mask
an image
of who I want you to see.
I am alone
cut off from the world,
broken and fragile
desperately grasping for someone to see
the agony that I feel inside.

it's brave of you to write your feelings here, Jenna... writing can be cathartic... and you are not alone... i know these feelings all too well, and in time, the mind does quiet and subside... be strong and be well.

I am sorry you are so sad. One day you will look back and realize it wasn't so bad.

Jenna, many of us hide in that place of unknown and wear the mask of day in disguise. Take heed that you are not alone and we many seek our true selves and a way to happiness, the demon has a strong hold but we are blessed to have places like here to share our troubles and wishes, lower the mask a little and let your true self out for a while and things will start to work out fine.

Best wishes

Rick
