You Say

You say you see me, but do you really
You say you know me, but do you know me
You know and you see the fake me only
I change to who you know and who you see
Underneath everything is a huge mess
Anxiety controls my life
What's underneath the surface could you guess
What should I do now, should I grab a knife
End everything, then there will beΒ 
No one knows me, or cares, no one would miss
If I left there would be no loss, but gain
Not one left living would say I miss you sis
The lights at the end begin to glisten
You say you hear me, but do you listen

Being Me

Hi Dorothea. You have expressed your feeling well, here. Very well! Forgive me for saying, but I do hope you are writing from past experience of this or maybe its pure creativity. I hope you are not suffering this right now. If you are then I hope there are friends or family to be there for you and that you are able to get professional help too. Anxiety and depression are horrible illnesses but you can start to feel better again with right help. You have come to the right place here! Writing out your feelings really does help. You've written well and I look forward to reading more from you. Welcome to Cosmo x
