Your Actions

By: Stephanie MacDonald

​

They say true beauty comes from the inside. 
You believe that's something only ugly people say. 
What are you going to do today? 
Still denying the fact you're withering away? 
You lie awake in bed everyday.  
Not caring about what your loved ones say. 
You don't believe you have low self-esteem. 
You don't believe that you're depressed. 
Just whispering quietly, you're only stressed...

 
Sit and hide emotions and feelings. 
Say that's your way of emotional healing. 
Hide away from everyone. 
Don't you see how this affects your son? 
See the commercials on TV. 
Yell that's not where you want to be. 
Months have passed and it's all still the same. 
Get the courage, say you are done with this game. 
Time to find those wings to set yourself free. 
Smile at your son and say please help me.
