Surrounded by people 
Yet I feel so alone 
I love my friends 
But they don’t understand 
 
I don’t want to bury them with my burdens 
Or inconvenience them with my thoughts 
They would be scared by my demons  
They all cannot understand the depth of my pain 
 
So I keep my feelings inside me 
Allowing them to fester  
When I’m alone, I set them free 
I can’t control them any longer

I really like this poem. It's short and effective and really shows your emotions well. My favourite part was the last couple of lines as I found them really relatable. I'm looking forward to reading some more of your writing if you'd like to share any.

				Do you ever get a little bit tired of life 
Like you're not really happy but you don't wanna die 
Like you're hanging by a thread but you gotta survive 
'Cause you gotta survive
