Dying inside Quote by Patience
“Im so broken I can feel it, like physically feel it. my insides are falling in. I can barely breathe, it feels like I'm being stabbed each breath I take. I lie so you don't worry about me.i cry over dumb stuff. every night I lay there in my bed, thinking about every possible thing I fucked up in my life. I hurt myself on the outside, trying to kill the monster inside me. I act like I'm okay, when I'm really dying inside. I'm sorry for things that I never caused. I overreact over the dumbest shit. and I just break down, realizing how lonely I am.”
