Scared to Death

Also from 2009

On the outside I laugh
But the inside I'm screaming
I need a way to end all this
But I can't just throw away my mask
A more permanent solution
Is what I currently seek
Too bad I'm scared to death
Of what I wish to happen
Tears and blood solve nothing
Just a quick and temporary fix
That isn't truly a fix at all
Because I still feel like s**t
No one really sees
The feelings I choose to hide
Only because I fear
All anyone will do is judge
They can't read underneath my mask
I'm trapped and chained
Endless darkness closing in on me
If it only would reach me now
Maybe all of the hurt and pain
Would go away forever.

Author's Note

Again, more structure.
