They Don't Hear The Screaming

no one understands the turmoil that goes on inside
they think of me as crazy, unorganized or lazy
they don't hear the screaming

people often tell me to slow down and think
they say that I need to focus more
they don't hear the screaming

no one believes me when I tell them that I am trying my best
they say that I need to work on being better
they don't hear the screaming

people say that I need to chill and relax
they think that I am doing this on purpose
they don't hear the screaming

no one understands what goes on in my head
they don't realize anxiety is taking over my brain
they don't hear the screaming

SHE

She gets up every morning and gets ready for work
She pulls herself out of bed and shakes off the previous day
She puts on a smile and greets the world with her graces
She makes it through the day with a twinkle in her eye
She gets home and she loses her composure
She takes in everything he says
She loses hope that her life will ever be better, that anything will ever change
She hears him tell her over and over that he doesn't want anything more
She lets him tell her that she isn’t worthy of anyone's affection
She fears that she doesn’t deserve love
She knows there is no future here with him but she is to afraid of being alone
She sees you and she is ashamed of the butterflies
She wants to be near you and feel like a human again
She cant help but to see if maybe somewhere out there is something more than this
She is tired of how he treats her
She lays there and lets him do what he wants to her
She just doesnt have it in her to fight it
She is broken and she is just looking for a way out
She cries when you’re not looking
She lets you see her at her best when she’s always feeling at her worst
