I want the world to hear my voice
Yet I tend to isolate myself.
I want my emotions to be understood
Yet I tend to say "but who would? ".
I want to create connections
Yet I tend to regret most of my actions.
I want to love with all my heart
Yet I tend to think I'm not even worth a single thought.
I want a reason to leave bed every day
Yet I tend to think, "what's the point of it anyway?".
I want to seek help for my mental illness
Yet I tend to be a coward nonetheless.
I want you to be happy with life
Yet I tend to act like it in your eyes.
I want to live free
Yet I tend to realize it's only a dream.
