Don't let anyone make you disappear - Alice Oseman_Heartstopper


I'm suffering inside,

I feel the pain sleeping from my eyes,

I feel like all my happiness is locked up tight,

I don't think anyone can see my pain ,

I can't seem to escape my broken ways,

I can't take it anymore,

I know that no one cares anymore,

I can see it in their eyes,

I'm good enough for my family,

I ain't got enough for my teachers, 

I ain't even good enough for my own friends, so why do they expect me to be good enough for myself,

why can't I just please everyone,

why can't I just end it all,

I'm suffering from all this

pain inside.
