Just have another drink
However many it takes to numb the pain
However many you down to try and paint on a smile
Because nobody knows your story
Nobody knows what you've gone through
What you've endured
What you've put up with time and time again
How alone you feel even in a crowded room
The countless wasted tears and self inflicted wounds
Because nobody knows
They try to feed you adivce you never asked for
They continue to bother you when all you want is to be left alone
But in all reality you just want someone to reach out
You just want someone to prove that they care
Day after day is a struggle just to wake up
Day after day you try to let go of the negative thoughts
But because nobody knows your story you continue to push away
You continue to make yourself suffer alone
You continue to fall further and further into the darkness

Writing out the darkest parts of our lives is good medicine. I love this piece you've written, it's honest and deep and full of emotion.
Hang in there, friend.
