The Way I Am

A fight and struggle to stay a head
Some days I'm happy others I wish I was dead
for who I am tomorrow might not be who I am today
see one minute I'm early the next I might be late
play I like pink, lace and frills
but tomorrow death to me might seem a thrill
The voices in my head don't seem to go away
At night my dreams are as real as day
For my identity is damaged and let in the abyss
And if I died today I fear I will not be missed
I struggle day to day through many don't know
See to me my reality is like a horror show
The threat in my life has long went away
But the memories make it seem as thro its still here today
For why do I tell you this you may ask
Well it's not quite as simple as my past
See some might look at me as broken
But truth be told my eyes have seen hell with a gold token
Yet to me in my struggle a degree I hold high
Because most don't make it out no matter how hard they fight
So yeah I'm off, not right in the head
But I'm alive here today and far from dead
