I feel like I'm drowning, choking on the pressure.
I see the person I want to be, I let depression be my oppressor.
As I pull apart my prison bars, I become my own aggressor.
My own anxiety is trying to kill me, all for your pleasure.
They tell me I'm fine but I don't really feel it,
I'm losing my mind but you don't really see it,
I fight to survive but I don't ever show it,
My life is a lie but youll never see it.

Dandelion
Introduction The 3 phases of a dandelion represent the sun, moon and stars. The yellow flower represents the sun, the white puff ball represents the moon and the dispersing seeds represent the stars. The name dandelion comes from French dent-de-lion, meaning "lion's tooth" because of the pointy shape of its leaves.
