I j ust wa n t to screa m to the world, scream it so loud. You've n o idea how broken I feel. How worthless, unloved, and wounded. And you can't because I can't let you see this part of me. You seem so happy, and all I want is to feel something besides this pain. I want what you seem to have. You don't know the shame I feel in this darkness. The shame keeps it hidden. I'm embarrassed by how dark it feels. I want you to save me, I want to seek refuge in your adobe. Please help me. Yet I can't ask. The shame quite my desires. But I can't scream it to the world. It's more than the world can handle. Because I know. I know that you too had demons you were fighting. All I wanted to do is hold you, hug you, let you know that I'm here, but how can I? When you don't allow me to look at your other side, all I see is how happy you seem. By "world" I mean "you, the reader".
