Analysis of Worth
Am I worthless?
Am I a waste of space?
Not worthy of your time,
Just a hopeless case?
Tears dwelling in my eyes all day
Yet, I smile cause I've got nothing to say
But, no meaning is held,
No joy depicted,
It's just for the formality expected
My lips are moving
Yet no sound is made
Cause even therapy is expensive and paid.
No one's seen the tears on my face,
No one; but my pillow case.
My screams are muffled
My cries neglected
How do I reach out for help
When anxiety is overrated
