I Use To
I use to cry
I use to get angry
I use to care
Now I just feel empty
Hollow
Not worth living
I frequently ask questions that I will never get the answer to
Why me?
Why do I need to live?
Why can't I just die?
Why does no one understand?
Why?
I use to have extremely bad days
I use to have excuses
I use to try and fool everyone
Now I realize no one cares
None
I don't have to try that hard
All I have to do is hide the scars to aviod unwanted glances
I use to get angry
I use to care
Now I just feel empty

I frequently ask questions that I will never get the answers to. Now I realize no one cares. Those where really powerful heartfelt lines...love the honesty

Those whose eyes have shades, feel that there is no understanding from others, they feel singular in their pain, they feel like no one knows how they feel. Being both an empath and someone who has dealt with depression since the age of 9, I can deeply empathize with the pain expressed in the poem. Continue to be honest in your ink, for not only do you heal as a therapeutic act, but you are helping others by letting them know, that they too are not alone... that someone else does indeed, understand.
