the curse of my birthday

It’s back 
The darkness is back 
The need to sit in a dark room and cry has returned 
The need to nothing but wallow in sorrows 
I wanted nothing more than to spend the weekend with my friends 
To enjoy their company 
To celebrate my 21st birthday 
But the curse has reared its ugly head again
The curse that brought about many dark times on my birthday 

It never fails 
It comes in the form of weather normally 
But this year it wants to curse me this way 
It wants me to sit alone in a dark room 
Crying for friendship and company 
It wants me to see just how lonely I am 
To force me to see that I have no control 
And everything in my life is doomed to be destroyed in a flood of tears 

I hate my birthday 
I hate it with a passion now 
I used to wonder why people hated their birthdays 
But I get it now 
It means nothing more than another year of pain 
Of stress and mental breakdowns 
Of tears and sorrow
Of loneliness

I don’t want to celebrate my birthdays anymore 
I don’t want to deal with this curse anymore 
I don’t want to feel so sad and lonely anymore 
I don’t want the darkness to swallow me up for the millionth time again 
Although I can see it already has 
And there’s no coming back from this drowning now

who am i anymore?

What has my life become?  It’s a question I ask myself on the daily now  Am I doomed to live here forever, Stuck in a house that doesn’t feel like home?  Am I going to live a lonely life, No friends in town or love to hold?  Everything in my life has lost meaning now I don’t want to be here or there I don’t even want to be in this world most days  The depression has clawed its way back, Cementing itself in my life again.  I thought I got rid of it,  I thought the friends I had helped get rid of it  But now I see it more than ever  Alone in an old house  Alone in a life i don’t want to live anymore  I’m here but nowhere at the same time  My face is not my face But a mask everyone has become so accustomed to they’ve forgotten who I am inside It’s easy to fake a smile  But I’ve faked for so long I don’t know who I am anymore  Am I dead or am I living?  Am I even here righ...

My Mask

My mask I’ve worn it so long I’ve forgotten what it looked like  I’ve forgotten what I look like  I've forgotten who the hell I am  Who I was  Who I want to be  Everyone in my life has seen my mask I’ve learned to wear it well  Few have seen beyond it  And only those few know my secrets  My deepest secrets But even they haven't seen it all  There’s a mask in every part of my life  At home In school With family  Everywhere I have a mask  I wear a mask  Most people don’t even realize it's there  They don't realize that the me they see  Is not the me inside  They don't know the dreams I feel I’m losing  They don't know the darkness that lives in my mind  They don't know the life I've lost They don't know anything  And I feel that no one does  No one knows how deep my secrets go  The dark places my mind can wander if I don't co...
