Trapped Poem by Chante Keyter

The feeling of being trapped in your own mind….
Driving you insane,
Trying to ignore it,
Pushing it away…
Your heart and your mind never align with each other…
I'm screaming,
But no one hears me,
My eyes are filled with tears over due,
But no one sees…
I'm smiling on the surface,
But no one knows
I'm dying in the depths of depression…
I'm speaking,
But no one understands me…..
Why can't I be accepted?
No allows me to be me…
I feel like a creation of what they want me to be…
What they made me to be…
Too much pressure! ! ! ! !
My head is going to explode! ! ! ....
What should I do? ? ? ...
What can I do? ? ? ....
I want out! ! ! ….
I want to get away from my mind! ! ! ! ....
Crying…
It's like an everyday thing now….
It's starting to feel NORMAL….
Where is the happy me? ? ? ? ....
What happened to all the possibilities? ? ? ...
I dream…I dream a lot... of where I want to be in life….
In my fantasy…
I'm somebody….
In reality….
I'm a no body….
And that's the harsh reality of life as ME…
