Letters From Chesapeake Psych Ward:
By Anonymous
in my life
in my life i’ve lived
i’ve breathed, through pain
and strife but i broke down so
now i’m Here.
my worst nightmare,
my greatest fear
but hey.. oh wait…
it’s not so bad
though i’m here and we’re all mad.
i’m fine. breathe in… breathe out…
me.
not a boy
not a girl
14
surviving
in this cruel world,
chose my name,
my hair and more,
but still i feel i’m looking for,
myself, my dreams,
who i want to be,
i can’t live just flying free
what makes me
anxious, scared, terrified,
If you could see the world
through my eyes
what makes me me?
how could i know?
i’m stuck here fighting
this invisible foe,
depression.
how could i have time for me?
to find out? to see?
who i am, what i have inside.
i’m me.
for now that’s all i can hope to know.
