Alone he felt in his own world, mentally ill.
No one had any idea that he was sick, because they never saw him take a pill.
So he went on with life, just singing his songs.
Sometimes he sang the lyrics all wrong.
But he was proud of himself and ignored the spiraling signs.
He was up cast and sometimes down cast especially being high.
One evening he ran away from his home.
All he wanted was to be alone.
Because sometimes his thoughts get really dark, and he will hurt anyone around.
He drew a joker face on his face to show the world that he isn't okay.
The real guy is hiding behind all.this make up and had fallen astray.
He spirals for weeks at a time then goes down into a depression.
When he finally falls, sleep is what he needs, not a confession.
With the right meds, he could be alright.
Therapy also would help, but right now he needs to sleep his night.
