I scream and cry inside my head, But on the outside, wear a smile. I'm full of silent anguish, But look falsely happy all the while. I hate myself when I'm with you, I hate who I am forced to be. You make me pretend I'm someone else, I only wish that I was free. Someday I'll leave but not too soon, I'm too afraid to go right now, I would be all by myself, You've lived life for me, I don't know how. I wish you gave me a little space, And let me do things on my own, But you control your life and mine, I wish I had some time alone!
Reason for writing:
One of my closest friends had this problem with someone he cared about.
