Days spent crying in bed When even hunger cannot get me out of my paralysed state When only breathing is all I do When I avoid phone calls from mom Because I don't have anything to say about my day If I candidly tell her about my day, she would worry needlessly about me. Days when I feel like a failure When nothing goes right When I can't even get out of my own head Even as I scroll mindlessly through social media Are things I wish my mom knew about me.
