My Broken Half
I want peace
I want to have good dreams when I sleep
I want to go outside
and be able to just breathe
I want these feelings to die
I wish they had never arised
It doesn't matter how hard I try
they'll always take over my life
I can't stand the fear
I can't stand the tears
I wish my head would just clear
I stand in the chaos of my own mind
Sadly I can't say that I'm fine
But I smile and laugh
I'm ashamed but hiding it has become a craft
Ill never be able to show my broken half.

Try and work on not feeling ashamed, there no reason you should be. One thing I learned from forcing myself to be open about it is there's so many people feeling the same way, all thinking their alone.
