state of mind locked away,fear drifting in,i thought i was happy,but was i?it was all a sin.you gave me all you could,and buried it all inside.i twirled around,looking for escape,or at least a place to hide.my heart throbbed, and my soul ached,as pain attacked my mind.i couldn't think,i couldn't breathe,my sanity beginning to grind.i'm trapped inside,with nowhere to run,and no one to plead for assist.swallowing my courage,and conquering the sting,slowly, i slit my wrists.no..i'm not going to slit my wrists..the thought makes me numb. i wrote this..thinking of a friend..that is going through some really tough times right now. :( i'm worried.
