How can one love someone when one can't love themselves.

Love was never anything they ever gotten or actually felt.

No one to ever check on your heart to make sure it was upkept.

From a child you held on to this misery & it crippled your health.

Afraid to talk about to family, & even friends, & too much pride to get help.

The building up of emptiness, anxiety, pain & stress.

Now you feel alone, isolated, weak, & depressed.

The pain, the sorrow makes the bones deteriorate & the flesh melt.

Sleepless nights, overthinking, mind flooded with bullshit & random mess.

Saying & looking alright, but going left.

Seeing through your own eyes, but not in control of yourself.

Being alive, but feeling death.

Mental illness is real be aware; Know thyself & don’t have too much pride to get help.

Anybody who tries to convince you otherwise is a devil & their home is hell.

Just know there are actually caring people out here who know your struggles & feelings and wish you well.
