Deciding

By vaultgrl

Cold

Lonely

Broken inside

Remembering how it feels to be given up on
To give up on
To give up
Numb

Hurt

Empty inside

Wishing it was only anger
To be angry with
To be angry at
Doesn’t hurt as much

Sadness

That doesn’t go away

Smiling

So everyone else has a good day

Wishing

That loneliness was visible
So I wouldn’t have to keep hiding it

Knowing

It’ll always be the same but

Deciding

One day, there needs to be a change
