**MY MENTAL HEALTH**
Sometimes friends don't have a clue
Of the things you pass through
"I wish I could be in your shoe,"
They say
What shoes do you mean
Just because you see my good clothes and my nice shoes, you know what's within?
I bet if you do, you're going to need some aspirin because knowing will make that head bang cause of the tears you've been shedding.
I am going through a lot right now
My mental health, somehow
Zoning into space, I find myself sometimes wondering what I could have done with my past times, thinking, just thinking if my life is a big joke.
Read books, engage yourself in activities, etcetera, people say
I'm doing them cause I have no other choice but to listen and try to get those intrusive thoughts out my head, but they still make a way at the end of the day.
The demon on my left shoulder tell me things I can not bear, and when I go talk to someone, they act like they can't hear, cause in this country no-one has time to spare.
No therapist I can talk to, and if there's one, no one goes to cause it is presumed for the weak and crazy.
I'm not weak, neither am I crazy, but I need therapy or just someone I can talk to,
To make me happy.
