Hero

This journey has taught me there is no use for my silence anymore.  To hide the truth is only to perpetuate the lack of education regarding Mental Health.  People do not understand and so exists this "Stigma" we all fight against.  We need to keep talking, and so I offer my honesty...

Hero

Why does horror motivate?

How do we justify our insensitivity to the human condition

We prefer this world where people are polite

Hiding us from their story 

The truth that is their life

Come here

And sit for awhile

As long as you can 

Tolerate

My honesty

This is my life

This image you see 

Flashing before you

Brief

Fleeting

Call yourself my hero

Could you be my hero?

Look at me now

Laying here

Raw 

This is my face

My body

Betraying me
Can you fix me

Save me

Wipe the tears 

Blurring 

Your vision

Of me

Let me introduce you to fear

It's that lump in your throat

That look in your eyes

I will not judge you

Take my hand

Let me console you

Let me be your hero

I will carry you through 

The horror you see

In me
