Plastered Smiles

I can smell the stench

It comes from within

Creeping through my veins

The darkness glisten 

 

The pain is growing

Despair rots my brain

Feel the pounding

Boiling from the strain

 

Overwhelmed by day

Depressed by night

Insomnia is my friend

Everyday is a fight

 

Hidden in plain view

Plastered by smiles

The darkness fades

If only for awhile

 

Mental crashes

Ripping at my skin

The black consumes

Everything, from within
